Meat cleaver attack: Police arrest man covered in blood

  • last month
This is the moment police officers arrested a man "covered in blood" after he left a woman close to death by hacking her 32 times with a meat cleaver.

Lee Sargent, 47, left his terrified victim with what a senior cop described as the "worst injuries ever seen on someone who survived" during the horror attack.

A court heard the 43-year-old woman only survived thanks to quick-thinking police officers who administered medical aid which saved her life.
