I’ve just spotted this on Flipboard, and I can’t find a thread about it yet, but whoever the perp is should face charges of attempted murder if caught, just the thought of it fills me with a mixture of horror and seething fury!

Why have they blurred out the injury? Isn't that also what they are trying to show?

I dont think they would opt for an attempted murder charge, rather GBH with intent. The intent is to cause serious harm.

It will have been done by a dog walking pensioner.

Re. Title: Why Wales in particular? Has this not also already happened in other countries?

Yes, it happens loads, but he's written Wales so you can keep an eye out if you're riding that particular trail 😉

You know, like if there was an issue at Ladybower, or Dalby.... or that murder a few years ago in Delamere.

Y' know Wales
