A Kiwi criminal and Comanchero member bashed a former friend and associate so badly he required multiple surgeries - all because he wanted to leave the Australian gang.
Vincent Meyer - the son of the feared Comanchero member Norm Meyer, arrived at a former friend and gang member's workplace in Melbourne before unleashing a flurry of punches and kicking and stomping on the motionless victim.
CCTV captured the terrifying footage, with the victim suffering fractures to both arms, each of which required surgery, as well as head and facial injuries from the gruesome 45-second gutless attack.
Detective De Santo said at the time two Comancheros had broken the man's arms and inflicted "serious facial injuries", leaving him in a very serious condition.
"The assault was over … a former member of the Comancheros (attempting) to disassociate himself from the club," he said.
