    'Deliberate Attempt To Cause Serious Injury' - Derry Journal, Ireland
    "Last weekend someone sawed a scaffolding plank almost in half, then put it back on the scaffold, obviously with the intention that the first worker to stand on the plank would fall straight through it. This is not something that can be regarded in any way as a prank. This was a very clear and deliberate attempt to cause serious injury. The consequences of this could have been very serious."
