Chair leg attacker avoids jail
A man who hurled a metal chair across a Melbourne night club, skewering a man through the eye with one of its legs, has avoided jail.
Liam Peart, 20, has been sentenced to 400 hours community services after throwing the chair during a brawl at the Metro nightclub in January. The chair hit Shafique El-Fahkri who was standing about three metres away, the leg plunging through his eye socket and embedding itself deep into his neck.
Miraculously, Mr El-Fahkri survived, after spending a month in intensive care at a Melbourne hospital. He has recovered 95 per cent of his vision but has been left with a raspy voice. Peart pleaded guilty to one charge of causing serious injury.
