A teenager stole his friend's sense of taste after leaving him needing numerous stitches in his tongue during a savage street attack.
Ryan Ferguson was 18 when he carried out the "cowardly" attack on his former friend after they had a fall out, Perth Sheriff Court was told.
Darren Brown bit hard on his tongue as he hit the ground and it began bleeding heavily. As his victim lay on the pavement, Ferguson kicked him on the head.
