I suppose if it is established that the hedgehog was alive at the time of the assault, this guy could be charged for animal cruelty offences too?

A man in New Zealand has been charged with using a hedgehog as a weapon, the New Zealand Herald has reported.

Police said William Singalargh, 27, had hurled the hedgehog about 5m (16ft) at a 15-year-old boy.
