    Stabbed with a tomahawkMan faces court after argument with his wifeCameron Boon

    POLICE say a woman who wasstabbed in the leg with a tomahawkwas running from her husband whenshe called for help.

    The man is accused of hacking his

    wife’s leg with a tomahawk, stabbingher in the wrist and head with a fork,and hitting her with a plastic chairduring an argument at the weekend.

    Police say they were called ataround 9pm on Friday when thefight at a home in Ellery Drive was

    taking place. When they arrived thevictim told officers her husband hadhit her with a tomahawk and stabbedher head and wrist with a fork.

    The woman said her husband hadalso dragged her from a car earlier inthe night and kicked her to the head

    and stomach. She was taken to AliceSprings Hospital and received nu-merous stitches. She was dischargedyesterday.

    The man was charged with aggra-vated assault and two counts of beingarmed with an offensive weapon. Hewill appear in court today.

    Call toset grogpriceA FLOOR price on al-cohol would help sup-port the NT Govern-ment’s ‘‘Enough isEnough’’ alcohol re-forms, according tothe People’s AlcoholA c t i o n C o a l i t i o n(PAAC).

    Spokesman JohnBoffa said the alcoholreforms would assist alimited number ofpeople to cut downtheir drinking, butmore needed to bedone.

    He said: ‘‘If we areserious about trying toreduce alcohol con-sumption to some-thing approaching thenational average, thenimplementing a floorprice is the single mostsignificant action theNT can take.

    ‘‘A floor price wouldreduce the amount ofharm that occurs inthe first place. It wouldalso enable the re-moval of some irrat-ional aspects of cur-rent restrictions.’’

    Dr Boffa said thefloor price would makemeasures such as Al-cohol Banning No-tices, the Alcohol andOther Drugs Tri-b u n a l , a n d t h eSMART Court, farmore effective.
