Default Child maimed by pavement cyclist

Surprise, surprise, he stopped, but no surprise: did not leave his details.

Young Daniel had stepped from the front gate at his family's home on to
Capel Lane when a cyclist in his early 20s struck him while taking a short
cut to avoid a set of bollards.

The boy, who had been on his way to a swimming lesson with his younger
brother, Jack, suffered a bruised face and cuts which needed stitches.

Exmouth police said they were keen to speak to the cyclist, who stopped and
apologised to the youngster after the collision but left the scene without
speaking to officers.

Maim:- "1. to mutilate, cripple, or disable a part of the body of (a
person or animal)
2. to make defective"

I maimed my lttle finger recently with my razor.

Which shows how careless you are with dangerous objects, but at least it was
yourself, and you had the choice of what you did, your injury is unlikely to
be noticeable to others and a large part of your life has already passed.

That small child has a permanently mutilated face, purely as a result of a
selfish, speeding, cowardly, pavement cyclist.

Stop pretending to care.
