The mother of a young boy who was hit 11 times with a car jack by another three-year-old boy says she has won the right to compensation.

Jay Jones, of Wirral, Merseyside - who is now five - needed stitches to his head after he was attacked while the boys were alone in a car two years ago.

His mother Renai Williams said the Tribunals Service ruled in her favour despite the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) twice refusing to pay out as it disputed whether such a young child could be guilty of a crime of violence.
