A racist killer of black teenager Stephen Lawrence has been left scarred for life after he was attacked by a blade-wielding inmate in prison.

Murderer David Norris, 46, was reportedly found profusely bleeding from his face after he was shivved by two inmates in HMP Dartmoor, in Exeter, on Sunday.

He is said to have been slashed from his 'forehead to his chin' before prison officers intervened, dragging him to a safe area as he 'howled in agony'.

Norris was cornered outside his cell by two burglars wielding shivs (or shanks) - self-made knives made in prison made from objects like toothbrushes and razorblades.

The two prisoners then attacked him while other inmates looked-out while the pre-planned attack on racist murder Norris took place at just after 8.30am on Sunday, a source at Dartmoor told The Sun.

He was then shipped to hospital for treatment - and doctors say he may end up permanently disfigured due to his injuries.

After receiving stitches to his wounds he was kept in hospital overnight and he will reportedly return to the prison at some time today.

The attack is reportedly not linked to Stephen Lawrence's murder in 1993 but instead related to an earlier argument with fellow inmates. Police are now investigating the attack.

It was said that Norris 'didn't stand a chance' in the fight where he wa badly cut up leaving 'a lot of blood'.
