https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hereford-worcester-44916419

A three-year-old boy has been seriously injured in a suspected acid attack in a shop, police said.
The boy was "deliberately attacked" at Home Bargains in Worcester at 14:15 BST on Saturday, West Mercia Police said. He is being treated in hospital for serious burns to his arm and face.

A 39-year-old man from Wolverhampton has been arrested in connection with the incident at Shrub Hill Retail Park, Tallow Hill. Ch Supt Mark Travis described the incident as a "deliberate attack".



These acid attacks have got to stop and we need to seriously increase the prison sentences for acid attacks, poor kid just 3 years old :frown:

The government want someone to die before they say “wow, we need to do something about this”...and then continue to do absolutely nothing about it...

I will never be able to get my head round acid attacks. Not only are they excruciating but they leave horrendous scars for the rest of that persons life. Now that poor 3 year old kid is going to have those scars for the rest of his life. It is such a disgusting thing to do and I really can’t understand the mentality of wanting to effect someone so severely not only in the short term but for the rest of their life. Also why would you target a three year old? It’s disturbing

Because some people are evil and sadistic, no other words to describe them. That's one of the reasons I believe acid attacks should carry huge sentences because of the permanent damage it causes, every time they look in the mirror they are reminded of what happened. Makes me so angry, people who conduct acid attacks should receive a life sentence.

A nurse named Joanne Rand died in June 2017 after having industrial strength sulphuric acid thrown on her.

Ms Rand had just returned from visiting her daughter's grave.
She was sitting on a park bench when a dispute broke out nearby between a group of youths that included an acid wielding teenager and his drug dealer.
In April 2018, 19 year old Xeneral Webster pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of Joanne Rand at Reading Crown Court.
Webster was also on trial for robbery, damaging property, making a threat to kill, murder, possession of an offensive weapon x 2, affray and attempted grievous bodily harm.

I just cannot understand why you would want to hurt a 3 year old boy
Because some revolting scumbag wants to maim or possibly murder a 3 year old with acid.

Britain has already seen acid throwing robbers, acid throwing ex lovers, acid throwing ex friends and acid throwing moped gangs.
Now it's escalated to acid throwing child abusers targeting the under 4s.

What is current jail term for acid user in UK?


Adults convicted of carrying a corrosive substance in public for a second time will be given a minimum six-month jail term, and under-18s handed a four-month detention and training order.

Someone who attacked their former partner with acid was given a sentence of 12 years, though I don’t know if that falls out the norm for punishment.

he current update on this story, rather than it being a random attack, was that as orchestrated by a muslim asylum seeker that objected to his ex wife walking around without a hijab or niqab.

andso he hired three men to throw acid on her, idiots only managed to hit the child.

perhaps the topic needs now to move onto the seemingly murderous obsession within islamic community to force women to cover up ?

Some of that isn't true. The woman was afghan and so was her husband. It seemed they had split up and she was in a safe house. He saw the kids photo in a paper and tracked them.

It's not because she was/wasn't wearing hijab. No one provided a reason for why they had split.
