A MAN has been charged with grievous bodily harm over an acid attack.
David Phillips, 48, of Hastings, will appear in court today in connection with the assault which left victim Andreas Christopheros, 29, with life-threatening facial injuries.
Mr Christopheros was attacked at his home in Carrine Road, Truro, Cornwall, on December 9.
He was rushed to the city’s Royal Cornwall Hospital and then to a specialist burns unit.
Mr Phillips and a 16-year-old boy were arrested near Hastings on Friday. A Devon and Cornwall Police spokesman said Phillips would appear at Truro Magistrates Court tomorrow.
The 16-year-old has been released without charge.
