A West Lothian social worker has been left scared to leave the house after she was knocked unconscious and beaten black and blue by strangers at an event at the Edinburgh Fringe.
Ellen Clarkson, from Broxburn, was battered at the Hot Dub Time Machine show at the Royal Highland Centre on the outskirts of the capital at around 1.15am on Sunday, August 21. The 23-year-old says she was set upon by an older man and group of females as she celebrated her birthday with friends.
Edinburgh Live reported the man, who was said to be in his 30’s, allegedly punched Ellen in the face and knocked her unconscious before two females began kicking her in the face and head. Shocking images shared by Ellen show her bruised and swollen face.
