A woman hacked at an unconscious man's legs with a kitchen knife before her father bit him in the face and kicked him. Paul Griffin knocked Gareth Rowlands out with his first punch outside the home of his daughter, Hollie Griffin.
As Mr Rowlands lay motionless, Paul Griffin continued to 'direct numerous blows' at him while his daughter attacked him with the same knife her father had used while cooking a roast dinner moments earlier. With the assault captured on camera, Paul Griffin sank his teeth into Mr Rowlands' face.
He then smashed his victim's head into the ground before kicking him so hard that his flip flop came off, the Liverpool Echo reports. The father-daughter duo were covered in blood as police arrived and claimed to have acted in self-defence, Liverpool Crown Court heard yesterday (December 16).
