ATTACKERS almost cut off a man’s fingers as they tried to chop his hand off with a sword.
It is believed one man held down Darroll Tervit, 30, while the other began hacking at his arm and wrist after he was ambushed in a dark lane near his home.

He managed to flee his attackers in Castlemilk, Glasgow, but was left covered in blood and with his fingers hanging off.
A source said: “He has been maimed for life.
“The attackers were trying to chop off his whole hand but only succeeded in seriously damaging his digits.
“It’s gone round that he had a finger nearly lopped off completely — it’s savage stuff.”
A local said: “There was blood all over the place and running down the footpath.”
Cops said the victim was treated at the city’s Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.
Det Con Glenn Clark said: “Enquiries are ongoing.
“I urge anyone who may have seen or heard any disturbance in the area to get in touch.”
