Machete teen launched ‘terrifying’ attack outside Tattoo parlour A pair of youths armed themselves with a machete and samurai sword then set about another man as he enjoyed a cigarette outside a Toothill tattoo parlour, a court heard. One of the two, a 16-year-old boy who cannot be named as he is under 18, was sent down for two years and four months at Swindon Crown Court for what the judge labelled a “terrifying” daytime attack. Judge Jason Taylor QC said: “You approached another young male who was outside a tattoo shop where he was attending an appointment but he went outside to smoke a cigarette. He was therefore clearly targeted.
