Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) say it’s “a miracle” that an 8-year-old girl survived a brutal attack in eastern Ontario last month that has led police to charge a 17-year-old teen with attempted murder and sexual assault with a weapon on a minor.

Police said she was in life-threatening condition and was rushed to hospital where she still remains.

“We really did suspect that this was an animal attack based on the horrific injuries and wounds that this eight-year-old had suffered,” OPP media relations manager Bill Dickson told Global News on Thursday. "It was a miracle she survived," he added.
