The pair have suffered serious injuries but their current condition is unknown.

He was also charged with one count each of possession of a knife blade / sharp pointed article in a public place and causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal.

A dog found "covered in blood" was taken to a vet but miraculously survived the incident, according to Thames Valley Police.

Brown has been remanded in custody and will appear at High Wycombe Magistrates’ Court tomorrow.

"We continue to support the families at this difficult time, and our thoughts are with them.

"The families would ask for their privacy to be respected at this time."

Today, Teohna's tearful mum was too overcome with grief to speak at her home in a sleepy corner of Nuneaton, Warwickshire.

Petra Grant was left inconsolable following news of the Christmas Day attack, which also left a man and teen lad seriously injured.

Meanwhile tragic rail worker Teohna's sister, Parris Grant, 26, was also in mourning following the bloodbath.

A photo shared online shows Teohna, who moved to Bletchley in Milton Keynes three years ago, celebrating her 18th birthday.

HORROR SCENES

One neighbour said: “They have had a party of some sort. We saw them all arriving in the morning with presents.

“At around 6pm a lady has come onto the balcony screaming, ‘I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe.’

“Moments later the teenager has come out the front door screaming and shouting - it was like a horror movie.

“He’s been stabbed in the chest and the head - he’s tried to block the knife and all his fingers are hanging off.

“Then the dog ran out - it was a little white dog, but you couldn’t tell because it was covered in blood.

“It kept running off and coming back - Joanne and that dog were inseparable.”

The stricken youngster sought refuge in a nearby house - forcing the terrified family inside to lock their doors to keep his dad out.

'PETRIFIED'

A neighbour said: “Me and my sister-in-law went out to see what was going on and walked down the road.

“A young boy came running past frantically shouting, ‘You need to help me, he’s going to kill me.’

“By the time we turned back around the dad came round the corner and was walking towards us very quickly so the lad ran into our house."

The neighbour continued: “I went into survival mode and got my sister-in-law into the house and locked the door to protect our family.

“He had three stab wounds - to his head, chest and finger.

“Me, my wife, my sister and brother-in-law, and their children were all in the house fearing the worst if he managed to kick the door down.

“By this time the neighbours had already called the police and I think he was spooked.

“The youngster stayed in the house until police and paramedics turned up. He looked absolutely petrified, going into shock, shaking.

“Paramedics later said that we had saved his life. His dad definitely would have killed him otherwise.”

Locals have left floral tributes and teddy bears at the scene since the horror on Christmas Day.
