Man Uses Hedgehog as Weapon Faces Jail

I am always interested how Zemanta, which is add on blogging software throws out suggestions for links when you write posts.

I liked this one from my last post on my name, presumably because I mentioned New Zealand.

"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."

Important stuff. Don't throw Hedgehogs in New Zealand.

I wonder how you pick up a hedgehog and throw it.

And for Jayne, here's the recipe.
