A 17-year-old girl, Milena Shevelyova, tragically died after being attacked by pigs at her family farm in Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia. Initially, it was believed that she was mauled by the animals, but further investigation revealed that her death was the result of a brutal attack by a neighbor, Igor Zaika, who held a grudge against her father.
On November 23, Igor, 40, attacked Milena after a confrontation with her father. According to Igor’s confession, he saw Milena leaving the farm and struck her twice, causing her to fall unconscious. “I hit her twice. I hit her the first time, she [pushed me] away. I hit her a second time,” he told the police. After knocking her out, Igor left Milena, who was then left to be mauled by the pigs.
Igor had originally intended to destroy the family’s livestock and set the farm on fire, but upon encountering Milena, he chose to attack her instead. He later confessed to officers, revealing that he harbored a grudge against her father. “The animals tore her femoral artery and bit her,” an initial report stated.
Milena’s body was found by a friend who discovered her lying on the farm, bloodied and with numerous injuries from the pigs. She succumbed to blood loss caused by the attack and the pig bites.
