A woman who was jailed for three years after she plunged a broken bottle into a man's neck because he threw a sausage roll at her has her bid to reduce her sentence rejected.
Kelly Anne Dixon of Spencer Street, Heaton, Newcastle, admitted unlawful wounding and was jailed for three years in January this year. The 42-year-old took her case to the Court of Appeal on Tuesday (June 28) however the appeal against her sentence was dismissed.
Newcastle Crown Court previously heard how Dixon was drinking wine at Old Eldon Square, in Newcastle, early on a Sunday afternoon last October when she clashed with victim Darren Foster. The court heard Mr Foster accused Dixon of stealing from him and he threw a sausage roll at her, which missed and hit a woman sitting next to her.
