A Royal Insult

Oh dear, another serious crime has been committed...

Street brawl
What else - a martial arts expert with a karate kick ...
Story:
A young Brit was paralysed from the neck down by a martial art expert as a 20-strong gang attacked him and a pal.
James Edward and Mark Bell, both 20, were found unconscious in Benidorm following the street brawl at 2am. The lads had been drinking on Saturday night in the so-called British quarter when they were attacked.
Spanish cops are investigating whether mechanic James was karate kicked in the back or hit with a cosh.
He shows no outward signs of a sustained beating, leading cops to think one attacker knew exactly where to punch or kick.
