to the ground from behind. The Defendant sat on
top of me and started to punch me on the face and
repeatedly banged my head on the ground. After a
while, I managed to push him off.
7. I then went to my car to get something to
defend myself and picked a piece of metal from
my boot but I decided against using it, the
Defendant rushed at me again and punched me in
the face and I fell backwards to the ground. The
Defendant then sat on my chest and started to
punch me repeatedly on the face. By this time, my
wife and daughter were crying, and my wife was
screaming for neighbours to help but nobody
came out. My wife tried to pull Mr Cordell off
him as I was not able to defend myself, but she
could not. She then grabbed the piece of metal
from my boot and hit the Defendant with it as self-
defence to stop him. Some neighbours come out
of their flat after a while and the Defendant got off
me and went into his flat. By then I was bleeding
profusely on my lips and forehead and both my
wife and I called the police and ambulance
service.
