Jogger attacked with Mars bar
A JOGGER was injured after being hit by a frozen Mars bar hurled from a passing car.
The man was running along Sunderland Road, South Shields, when the rock-hard chocolate bar was thrown at him.
Police said the car - a black Nissan or Toyota - then turned round, drove back past the shocked man, and its occupants threw another object at him before driving off.
The bizarre incident, which resulted in the man suffering a swollen ankle, happened at about 10.30am yesterday.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 08456 043 043.
