A New Zealand man is facing five years in prison after he was accused of assaulting a boy with a hedgehog.

Police allege William Singalargh, 27, picked up the hedgehog and threw it at the 15-year-old boy in the North Island town of Whakatane.

Police senior sgt Bruce Jenkins told the Herald: "It hit the victim in the leg, causing a large, red welt and several puncture marks."

Police arrested Mr Singalargh shortly after the incident, and charged him with assault with a weapon - "namely the hedgehog," Mr Jenkins said.

At a hearing in Whakatane District Court , Mr Singalargh's lawyer said he intended to plead innocent. The case is due to resume on April 17 and if convicted, he faces up to five years in prison.

"People often get charged with assault for throwing things at other people," Mr Jenkins said, although he admitted the use of a hedgehog as a weapon was "uncommon."

It was unclear if he also would face animal cruelty charges.

chopf##k...and poor hedgehog

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).
