A building supervisor who was assaulted at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital by an employee has been awarded more than $800,000 in damages, but is unlikely to see any money because his attacker is bankrupt. District Court Judge Rauf Soulio awarded former gyprocker and building supervisor Andrew Kent $815,624 in compensation for past, current and future losses after he was punched in the face by Shane Redhead in January 2012. Mr Redhead, who is now bankrupt, called his boss and said he was on his way to the construction site and wanted to meet him. “(Mr Redhead) wished to confront (Mr Kent) regarding allegations he had apparently made about the treatment of his wife,” Judge Soulio said in his decision. When Mr Kent, 48, arrived in the car park, Mr Redhead immediately punched him in the head, knocking him to the ground. “A struggle ensued,” Judge Soulio said. “(Mr Kent) got the better of (Mr Redhead) and held him down. Thereafter (Mr Kent) released him, having formed the view he had calmed down.” Once Mr Kent released him, Mr Redhead punched him in the face a second time before driving away from the Woodville hospital car park. Mr Kent suffered fractures to the jaw, cheek bone and eye socket.
