Yes, you read that correctly. Seems that a guy in New Zealand decided to toss a hedgehog at someone in a fight. Seriously, you couldn’t find a rock or something? At least throw one of the bazillion sheep they got down there. That could do some damage at least.
A police department spokesperson said, “People often get charged with assault for throwing things at other people,” though the weapon was admittedly a little uncommon. That’s like arresting OJ and saying, “Hey, people commit murder all the time, although a world class athlete/famous actor doing it is a little uncommon.”
The guy now faces up to 5 years in prison and up to 2 weeks of late night punchlines.
