A 75-year-old woman from Southampton, Sally Beaney, is reported to have admitted assaulting her neighbour, Matthew Perry, after an incident involving an ant killer, according to court coverage. Prosecutors said Perry, who has late-stage cancer, suffered an injury to his eye. The reports state the court heard that Perry developed swelling around the eye and a mild corneal injury. Beaney’s admission is described as taking place during the proceedings, though specific details of the substance’s role and the circumstances of the attack are not fully set out in the provided summaries. The accounts agree on the key elements: Beaney is accused of using ant killer against a neighbour; Perry is the injured party; and the injury includes swelling and a mild corneal injury. Both sources reference the same defendant, location, and medical impact, framing the case around an admission in court tied to the alleged assault and eye damage.
