Concrete evidence

UK -- A drug addict who was caught red-handed hurling a lump of concrete through his neighbour's lounge window needed hospital treatment after his outraged victim took the law into his own hands.

The 28-year-old man still suffers scars following the attempted break-in which backfired in Canford Heath, Poole, on August 28 last year.

The victim was in bed when he heard his door being knocked and the lounge window being rattled. After hearing a loud smash, he ran into the living room to find the window had been smashed and a large chunk of concrete on the floor.

The victim picked up the concrete and threw it back through the hole in the window, hitting the suspect, who ran off.

The suspect, who suffered a severe cut to his left cheek and a wound to his mouth, as well as cuts to his arm and chest, was arrested at his home later that night.

He claimed he had been subjected to a hammer attack and told police: "I wouldn't be so stupid to burgle homes near me."

But glass fragments from both properties were discovered in his jacket.

K1 self-defense

Self-defense...? Well, of course! A top-trained fighter killing a 60 year old man - how can it possibly be anything else?

Story:
The retrial of a former international K1 kickboxing champion is underway at the High Court in Palmerston North.
Paul Kingi is accused of the manslaughter of his 60-year-old uncle Rangiwananga Kingi in Dannevirke. Paul Kingi has admitted punching his uncle during an argument over the loan of a bull.
Crown lawyer, Ben Vandekolk, says the punch was delivered with such force and precession it lifted the deceased off the ground, propelling him backwards and causing him to hit his head on the concrete.
