Barmaid 'permanently disfigured' after woman bit her ear off in pub

A barmaid who had her ear bitten off by a woman shared shocking pictures of her injuries following the attack.

Michelle Thomas was off duty as landlady at The Firemans Arms in Birkenhead on the night of the incident. At a hearing at Liverpool Crown Court on Tuesday, Gemma Rowlands admitted wounding and was jailed for 14 months.

The court heard how Rowlands and her now husband Darren More were described as "causing trouble from the start" after entering the pub on the evening of November 11, 2019. At around 10.30pm, Rowlands began arguing with other customers and she and More were asked to leave the pub.
