Man attacks wife with cricket bat

A PUB landlord attacked his half-naked wife with a child's cricket bat when he found her enjoying a Chinese takeaway with another man, a court heard yesterday.

Anthony Ernest Morgan, 70, came across wife Elaine – his partner for 21 years – wearing only a towel at the home of Stephen Clarke.

She claimed to have stripped off so her clothes would not get greasy from the takeaway, Newport Crown Court heard.

Sorry slow day, no good stories to chew upon.
