Four mechanics chased an autistic apprentice, locked him in a garage and set him on fire with a blow torch.
The thugs were caught on CCTV laughing after torturing the unnamed teenage victim, who suffered burns to his thighs in the sickening assault last June. Lancashire Police said the victim was working as an apprentice at a garage in Wesham, near Blackpool.
During a shift on July 1 last year, he was chased into the garage by the four men, who ignited by a blow torch and aimed it at his legs with an accelerant. Security footage showed three of the attackers chasing the vulnerable victim around the unit, aiming the blow torch and accelerant towards him.
