NZ man 'used hedgehog as weapon'


A man in New Zealand has been charged with using a hedgehog as a weapon, the New Zealand Herald has reported.
Police said William Singalargh, 27, had hurled the hedgehog about 5m (16ft) at a 15-year-old boy.
"It hit the victim in the leg, causing a large, red welt and several puncture marks," said Senior Sgt Bruce Jenkins, in the North Island town of Whakatane.
It was unclear whether the hedgehog was still alive when it was thrown, though it was dead when collected as evidence.
The police spokesman said the suspect was arrested "for assault with a weapon, namely the hedgehog."
Mr Singalargh is due to appear in court on 17 April. If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison.

It has quills/spikes. So that is probably what caused the damage.

that would be 10x worse if it hit him in the face/eye areas.

nah have you ever held one? there spikes are kinda soft and flexible I dont doubt that it would hurt but you would really have to get some speed on it....where did this dude get the hedgehog any way?
