Essex Man Spells Out Attackers Name In Own Blood
PAUL Harvey wrote the name of his attacked in his own blood. In front of police at his home in Colchester, Essex, he managed to finger Spencer Wragg. The villain is now in jail.
He tells the NoTW:
“Blood was pouring from my face on to the floor. I stretched out my finger, dipped it in and wrote SPEN across the tiles.
“Then I ran out of blood, so I dipped my finger in again and wrote CER. They caught him that night.”

“The way Paul identified the suspect was like Murder She Wrote.”
