MRSA added to horror of burn victim

A MAN who was set on fire during a savage attack by burglars had to endure further horror when he contracted MRSA while being treated in hospital for his burns.

Ian Colquhoun, 27, recalled the nightmare after finally being declared fit enough to receive new prosthetic limbs, three years after his ordeal began.

Ian, who is from Scotland, was working in Ireland in 2002. He suffered terrible burns to his legs and arms when he woke up after a party in Dundalk to find two men apparently stealing the television.
