"We also need to take action to reduce the availability of blunt objects coming to hand in licensed premises and city centre streets."

Boots More Harmful Than Weapons In Street Violence, Study Shows

The prevention of attacks involving kicking or blunt objects is just as important as preventing knife violence, new research from Cardiff University shows.

A team from the University's Violence Research Group found that injuries inflicted with feet were more likely to result in severe injury than any other method of assault.

The team reviewed instances of violence resulting in treatment at the Emergency Department, University Hospital Wales, Cardiff between 1999 and 2005.
