A woman who launched a âfrightening, vicious and unprovokedâ attack on a fellow attendee of a Westlife concert 18 months ago has avoided a jail term.
Jackie Walsh (26) split the victimâs ear lobe during the attack after her earring got caught up when Walsh was pulling fistfuls of the womanâs hair.
The victim said she could feel blood pouring down her face and could see clumps of her hair all over her shorts during the assault.
The victim, who did not make a victim impact statement because she is currently going through a severe bout of depression, was treated by a doctor at the concert.
