Attacked by street racers, then he had to swim from his flooded car
Just weeks after Mark Maclean was left in a coma after being attacked on his driveway, he was escaping from his car as it was caught in the Auckland Anniversary floods.
The Warkworth man was found on the roadside in December after being critically injured in an alleged attack, which saw him being placed in an induced coma for a short period.
Maclean suffered severe brain injuries and a fractured eye socket in the alleged attack on the driveway of his home in Warkworth, north Auckland, on December 9.
