London: A "test of nerve" game in Britain ended in tragedy after a man stabbed his friend to death thinking he was wearing a pierce-proof vest. The attacker was jailed. Thirty-one-year-old David Baxter knifed his friend Christopher Baker through the heart as he thought the latter was wearing a pierce-proof vest, The Sun reported. After being knifed, Baker initially laughed and said: "It's gone through, Davey." He then collapsed and died. Baxter was sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison after pleading guilty to manslaughter. Newcastle Crown Court was told how Baxter often took part in a "foolhardy ritual" with friends trying to stab each other. Christopher initially struck Baxter with a Samurai sword that was stopped by a police-issue vest. But when Baxter used a seven inch long knuckle-duster knife, it went right through a camouflaged combat vest Christopher was wearing. Christopher's mum Maureen said: "The punishment does not fit the crime." | |
