Just days before he is due to undergo surgery on one of his eyes, acid attack victim Kellon King was arrested yesterday by police, who claimed that an arrest warrant was out for him.

Members of King’s family say they have been told that the warrant was based on a criminal complaint of assault brought by his ex-girlfriend, Lisa Fraser, who has been charged with carrying out the acid attack on him.

King suffered injuries to the right side of his face, including his right eye, and to his right arm as a result of the attack, which took place on September 2, at Ruimveldt, where the couple previously lived together.
