The family of Tommy Ward, 80, have called for help in finding the 'monsters' who savagely beat the ex-miner and stole his £30,000 life savings during a raid at his home in Maltby, South Yorkshire. Great-grandfather Mr Ward is fighting for his life in hospital (right) after being left with a fractured skull, broken jaw, ribs and finger and a head wound by thugs who raided his home earlier this month. The father-of-four, who did National Service with the Norfolk Regiment and the Northumberland Fusiliers, initially had just a 25 per cent chance of survival following a bleed on his brain. He has now 'improved slightly', police say, but remains in a critical condition. Heartbreaking pictures show the extent of his horrific injuries, which also left him needing a six-hour operation to staple together a wound which stretched from ear-to-ear. His daughter Jackie Perry, 52, (with her father, left) has now condemned the assault as 'pure evil'.
