A BLIND man was battered with a brick in a sickening attack by two thugs. Michael Chaplin, 21, and Darrell Hughes, 19, assaulted the disabled man and his father as they walked home along Hull's Spring Bank.

Hughes repeatedly struck the father with a house "for sale" sign. The father and son later revealed they both thought they were going to die.

I know it's not a very brave thing to do but I just thought I was going to die
