Hazards at work, 42

UK -- A Scottish market researcher fought back after a terrifying assault when a convicted sex fiend invited her into his Leith home for an interview on November 7, 2006.

The woman called at the flat unaware that the 59-year-old man who lived there had served jail terms totalling 18 years for assaults and sex attacks.

The man allegedly pushed her on to a sofa, held a knife at her throat, put his hand over her nose and mouth and threatened to kill her.

The woman fought back, cutting her attacker's face, and managed to get the knife and told him to "back off". She told the court: "I had to fight for my life."
