Following a quarrel between David William Cole and another youth, at Woollahra, the father complained to the police that his son had been attacked by young Cole.
The police advised the father to proceed by summons, and he left the police station. In the early hours of Sunday morning, Mrs Colo (44) and her daughter Sadie (21) heard knocking at the door. They went downstairs, opened it, anu were savagely attacked by a man with an iron bar, who battered their heads. The women were sent to hospital, both with compound fractures of the skulls. The police later arrested the father and son.
