<p>There were fresh calls for New Zealand&#8217;s unarmed police to carry guns after a lone constable was attacked with a machete, leaving him with slashes across his face, deep cuts and fractures to his head and arms and a finger severed from one hand.</p>
<p>Detective Inspector Chris Bensemann said senior constable Bruce Mellor was attacked and left to die after he pulled over two teenagers driving a stolen car during a routine stop.</p>
<p>A passing motorist spotted the bloodied Mellor, 57, lying on the roadside and called emergency services.</p>
<p>Mellor, who suffered a fractured jaw and eye socket and has several skull fractures,is in a serious but stable condition after surgery.</p>
<p>Police Association president Greg O&#8217;Connor says it&#8217;s time for every police officer to have access to firearms. </p>
<p>New Zealand police patrol unarmed, but pressure to give officers ready access to guns has mounted in recent years.</p>
