Thug suspected of repeatedly hacking girlfriend’s head with meat cleaver hunted by cops – The Sun

A THUG suspected of repeatedly hacking his girlfriend’s head with a meat cleaver was being hunted by cops.

Cleon Smith, 42, allegedly launched the vicious attack after dragging her from a car.

The 42-year-old victim suffered cuts to her head and another wound to her hand in the assault in Handsworth, Birmingham, on Monday.

A woman of 21 who was in the car suffered a cut hand.

Smith is also believed to have smashed the older woman’s cheekbone last week at a house.

On that occasion she was punched 20 times and beaten with a baton.

West Midlands Police officers hunting Smith have raided ten addresses across Birmingham but he remained at large.

Superintendent Nick Walton said: “Smith is a dangerous offender.”
