WELLINGTON (AFP) - Hurling a hedgehog at a teenager has landed a New Zealand man a date in court, a report said.

William Singalargh picked up the animal and threw it about five metres (15 feet) at a 15-year-old in the eastern North Island town of Whakatane in February, the Herald on Sunday reported.

"It hit the victim in the leg, causing a large, red welt and several puncture marks," said Senior Sergeant Bruce Jenkins, of the Whakatane police.

"He was arrested shortly afterwards for assault with a weapon, namely the hedgehog."

Police did not say why the alleged assault took place, and were unsure if the hedgehog was alive before the incident.

But they confirmed the hedgehog was dead afterwards and had been collected as evidence.

Singalargh was due to appear in court on April 17 to face the assault charge.

Has anyone watched police 10-7 ?

They're a different breed over there that's for sure.

CAPTAIN: Aged and toothless and bent old crone!

CRONE: How'd you know me name?

CAPTAIN: We wish to engage you as ship's cook and concubine.

CRONE: Oh yeah? What's a concubine, then?

CAPTAIN: It's a small, spiky mammal.

CRONE: No... that's a hedgehog!

CAPTAIN: In that case we wish to engage you as ship's cook and hedgehog.
