The savage attack left a deep gash in his head



A woman from Leamington has been jailed after savagely attacking a man with a beer bottle.

Andene Harvey, 37, of Bury Road, Leamington, hit the victim so hard with the bottle it left a deep cut in his head.

She had been out with the man on the evening of July 7, 2018, when they got into an argument.

Harvey and the victim, a man in his 30's, returned to a flat where they continued to argue.

A neighbour tried to intervene and then Harvey lashed out with the beer bottle.

As the victim lay on the floor, she continued to kick him.

The neighbour managed to barricade himself and the victim in the bathroom and called the police.

The police arrived and arrested Harvey.

She was jailed for four years at Warwick Crown Court on July 19 after being found guilty of grievous bodily harm.

PC Darren Costello from Warwickshire Police said: "This was an horrific and sustained attack which caused significant injuries.

"The police will deal robustly with violent offenders and put them before the courts."
