Boy attacked woman after pocket-money was stopped

A HEARTBROKEN husband has told how his wife will never be the same woman after she was assaulted by a 14-year-old boy who robbed her after his parents stopped his pocket-money.

Retired nurse Anna McDaid was badly injured after she was set upon by the boy in Letterkenny, Co Donegal, in August last year while walking to her local post office.

She suffered a broken arm, a dislocated shoulder and was knocked unconscious during the attack which happened at 5pm.
