A vile racist attacked a woman and bit her in front of her four-year-old son after launching a disgraceful tirade. Patricia McGrath, 43, became aggressive with the mum who overheard her telling a child: “You call him a monkey mate, he does look like a monkey”.
The woman told her not to condone the behaviour, but McGrath began swearing at her before choking her. During a struggle as the woman tried to push her off, McGrath punched her to the face and bit her arm, Minshull Street Crown Court heard.
She then ‘mocked her’ by hitting her on the head before calling her numerous racist slurs. After the attack, the woman went to hospital where she received treatment for the bitemark which had broken the skin, along with cuts and bruises to her face and hands.
