A 19-YEAR-OLD woman glassed a man, leaving a deep laceration on his face, a court heard.

Ashlie Ridout pleaded guilty to causing actual bodily harm in the drink-fuelled incident outside Yates’s bar in Poole High Street.

Victim Ricky Scott needed seven surgical sutures to the nearly two-inch long cut by his left eye, it was heard.

CCTV footage played at Bournemouth Crown Court showed Ridout and another woman arguing with Mr Scott for several minutes.

Ridout, who is now pregnant, is seen leaving to go to the bar and returns to throw her drink over Mr Scott, who is sitting down.

He retaliates and Ridout, standing, hurls her glass at him before fleeing the scene.

Mr Scott, who said Ridout was “ranting” at him, had to take strong painkillers for headaches following the attack.

Jeffrey Norie-Miller, mitigating, said his client had just broken up with a controlling boyfriend before the incident on October 13 last year.

She is now living in Scotland with a new partner and is said to be shocked by her actions that night.

Mr Norie-Miller said: “She is becoming a very different person from the one who stood drunkenly outside the Yates’s bar.

“She has a baby coming into her life and is aware that she has to change and that change is in progress.”

Psychologists have diagnosed Ridout as having a borderline personality disorder.

Judge Peter Johnson handed Ridout a 26-week prison sentence, suspended for 12 months. He also imposed a 12 month supervision order and mental health treatment.
