B&Q worker could face life sentence for beating co-worker 'within an inch of her life'

A B&Q worker who beat a co-worker "within an inch of her life" in a pair of steel toe-capped boots has been found guilty of attempted murder.

Andy Hurns had been released early from a 40-month prison term for causing death by dangerous driving of a pregnant mum after towing an unroadworthy van for 27 miles.

He was jailed in 2018 but, on November 24, 2020, he committed another horrific offence when he tried to kill the co-worker who had done nothing more than offer Hurns, a cyclist, a lift to work if the weather was bad.
