The 24-year-old illegal alien from India who attempted to eat a toddler’s face during a heinous random attack in a Texas park on Saturday was reported to ICE under the Biden administration for felony assault but allowed to remain in the country because federal officials decided the crime was not “egregious” enough to warrant visa revocation.
On Saturday, as The Gateway Pundit previously reported, while high on “wax,” the illegal alien, Atharva Vyas, carried out a savage, unprovoked attack on a mother and her three-year-old daughter in a San Antonio park, biting the toddler’s face, ripping out her front teeth, and jamming his thumbs into her eyes in what witnesses described as a scene straight out of a horror movie.
According to a report from the New York Post, Vyas was allegedly under the influence of “wax,” a highly concentrated form of cannabis with one dose equivalent to smoking 15-20 joints.
The toddler, little Amelia Perez; her father, Xavier Estrada; her mother, Gabriella Perez; and her grandfather, Richard Ariaza, were at the park, spending time together as a family and fishing when the attack took place.
Vyas emerged from the woods and charged at Gabriella Perez, grabbing her hair and punching her in the jaw. He then lunged at her three-year-old daughter, Amelia, pinning the toddler to the ground.
Witnesses said he bit the child’s face and mouth, tried to “eat” her face, gouged at her eyes with his thumbs, and ripped out her two front teeth.
Gabriella fought desperately to save her daughter.
“That brute was ravaging my baby!” Gabriella Perez told The Post. “She’s terrified to sleep. She’s lashing out, angry. She doesn’t understand evil like this f–king man. She’ll never be the same again.”
The New York Post reports:
Horrified witnesses surged forward, dragging the attacker off Amelia while Perez screamed for Xavier until he finally heard the commotion and raced to the scene.
Someone called 911.
Two men pulled out guns.
“I was screaming ‘Shoot him! Shoot him,’” remembered Gabriella.
The crowd finally overwhelmed the maniac, beating him until he collapsed, she said.
The sicko attempted to get up, but each time, the crowd subdued him again until San Antonio police officers arrived to find him drifting in and out of consciousness.
Vyas was arrested and booked into the Bexar County Detention Center on charges including injury to a child with intent to cause bodily injury, assault causing bodily injury, and illegal entry from a foreign nation.
“In the emergency room, the adults were all going crazy while Amelia was suffering shock. She sat eerie calm, like a statue, while the nurses and doctors worked on her poor face,” said the mother. “She didn’t make a peep, even though she was in a great deal of pain. It hadn’t hit her yet, what happened.”

The cannibal illegal alien entered the United States from India in August 2023 on an F-1 student visa.
Just three months later, in November 2023, he was arrested for felony assault on the University of Texas campus. The university contacted ICE, but the Biden administration took no action to deport him or revoke his visa, determining the offense did not meet the threshold of “egregious.”
The Trump administration finally revoked Vyas’s F-1 visa in April of last year.
On the day of the latest attack, ICE had already lodged a detainer with San Antonio police requesting he be turned over after facing local charges.
The Department of Homeland Security issued a blistering statement Friday, calling the attack “completely preventable.”
“This barbaric assault against this woman and her 3-year-old child in a park was completely preventable,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “The Biden administration NEVER should have released this animal following his arrest for assault.”
Amelia was hospitalized with deep scratches, bite wounds, missing teeth, and severe emotional trauma. Her mother said the little girl is terrified to sleep, lashes out in anger, and clings to her constantly. The family has set up a GoFundMe to cover medical bills, dental work, therapy, and lost wages.
