Two Teenagers Throw Acid Into The Face of Simon Cowell's Chauffeur

Two teenagers were jailed for a total of 16 years today after being found guilty of throwing acid in the face of Simon Cowell's former chauffeur in a case of mistaken identity.

Wayne Ingold, 57, of Witham, Essex, suffered horrific burns to his face, neck, shoulder and arm - and was left permanently scarred following the attack by Aaron Isaac, 19, and Jake McCabe, 16.

The father-of-two, who also worked as a wedding photographer, had the acid thrown over him when he went to the communal post box at his block of flats - and has since had many painful skin grafts.
