Police in New Zealand are still looking for four men in a vehicle who hurled a three-quarters-full beer bottle so fast it smashed a grandmother’s face and landed her in a coma.
The attack happened last Saturday as 65-year-old Mary Loader was taking a walk. According to reports, a car passing by launched a bottle that was thrown so fast “it was like a missile,” police said. It struck the victim in the face and left her bloodied and shaken.
Loader suffered a deep gash between her eyes, another between the nose and top lip, shattered cheekbones and a broken nose. She needed five metal plates inserted into her face to repair the damage the careless drivers caused. Doctors had to induce her into a coma.
But the victim has a good sense of humor about the vicious attack, “Under the circumstances, I’m not doing too bad,” she told the New Zealand Herald after waking from the coma today. “You can only whip an old dog so many times.”
The suspects are still at large.
