Would you guess? ### updated ###

When I found this statistic I must admit I was very surprised. What is the most common weapon victims get killed in the USA today? I thought immediately, of course a hand gun.

But no! This deadly weapon is a HAMMER !

And as many things we have got here come from America, there was an incident with a hammer involved in Crewkerne / Dorset. Only a short drive away from Bridport at our nearest train station.

The local paper says: Dorset police are investigating at present after a man was assaulted with a hammer at Crewkerne train station last week. The incident occurred at around 7.00 pm and left the victim with a head injury."

We at Ichinen Bridport will now add a hammer to our "toolbox" and exercise how to defend oneself against hammer attacks. Real street self defence, that's what we teach at our martial arts school. We always keep an eye on the evolution what's going on out there. If you like to learn how to defend yourself and your family, come and visit us at our Dojo and learn street self defence. Our fighting system is Jiu-Jitsu.
