UNBELIEVABLE: Scots butcher gets 150k compo after knife skewered arm and severed artery at work - The Untold Story

A Scottish butcher has received a £150,000 pay out after he was accidentally skewered with a knife by a colleague at work.

Ian Harrower, 65, was rushed to the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary after a colleague accidentally stabbed him with the blade that severed an artery in his arm just minutes after starting his shift.

Suffering a massive puncture wound on his right forearm, the blade had cut through his protective clothing, with the pain 'unlike anything he'd ever felt before', Edinburgh Live writes.
