THE horrified parents of an eight-year-old girl torn from her bicycle after riding into wire deliberately strung between two posts want the culprits thrown in jail.
Little Shayla cheated death, suffering cuts and bruises to her throat and face, when she was slung by the neck in a park near her Hastings home about 9pm on Saturday.
Her furious mum, Kylie Hart, said the offenders deserved to spend time behind bars.
“We take this very seriously because it could have been a lot worse,” Ms Hart said.
Police believe angry vigilantes tied the metal wire to trip up local youths riding minibikes and motorbikes in the reserve.
