Drunk woman, 61, attacked drinker with bottle outside Salford pub for 'no apparent reason'

A drunk woman who hit a man with a bottle 'for no apparent reason' outside a Salford pub has walked free from court.

Adele Mortimer, 61 , left the victim with wounds to his head and face after the attack outside the B'hive Inn in Salford on October 2, last year. CCTV footage captured her initial row with the victim, who pushed her, and she walked away. She then returned a few minutes later, and hit him with a bottle.

Mortimer pleaded guilty to unlawful wounding and was handed a suspended sentence of 9 months at Manchester Crown Court this morning (November 16). Mr Recorder Rigby described her lifestyle and 31 previous convictions as 'chaotic', and warned her she must stay away from offending again to avoid being 'sent to prison at the age of 61'.
