A man whose hand was almost severed following an alleged attack by a man wielding a sword has been taken into surgery today to reattach the hand.
The victim was allegedly hit above the wrist as he attempted to defend himself outside his home in Weston on Saturday Morning.
The man was taken to the John Hunter Hospital and stabilised over the weekend before his surgery today.
Police are still on the hunt for the attacker.
