A Piopio farmer is facing assault charges for attacking a home invader. The invader has said in court he was trying to steal the farmer's car when he and his girlfriend broke into the man's house, hit him and threatened him with a knife to find out where the keys were. The farmer then allegedly turned the tables, holding the invaders at gunpoint and calling the police and his son. The farmer's son is accused of cutting off part of the burglar's finger before police arrived. Steve Cullen is an Auckland Barrister, he joined Heather du Plessis-Allan. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
