An innocent bystander was left needing stitches after she was injured in a Maidstone nightclub.

The victim was in Beluga Bar, in Bank Street, when a fight broke out between a group of women at about 2.15am on Sunday.

The 23-year-old, who was not involved in the brawl, was hit in the face by a bottle, which cut her lip and broke two of her teeth.

The person who is reported to have thrown the bottle has not yet been identified and police are appealing for anyone with any information to come forward.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact PC Dee Fox at Kent Police by calling 101, quoting crime reference YY/6608/13.
