A 72-year old grandmother has found herself at the receiving end of a barrage of punches and a multimillion dollar civil suit.

‘My hand really, really hurts,’ Corporal Louise Lacey told gathered news crews.

When asked what led to the elderly woman’s arrest, Corporal Lacey said, ‘Listen, when someone looks at you the wrong way, you just know they’re a criminal scumbag who needs to be put in their place.’

An ICU doctor has described the woman’s condition as ‘critical’ and that she was in a ‘deep coma’. She has so far – rudely – not responded to requests for comment.
