Man glassed at Nelson Bay pub

BY JESSICA ROUSE

A man will face Raymond Terrace Local Court today accused of glassing another man at a Nelson Bay pub.

Police allege a fight broke out between two men shortly before 9pm on Saturday night at The Seabreeze Hotel on Stockton Street.

One of the men, a 28-year-old, allegedly struck the other in the face with a schooner glass, leaving the victim with a severe laceration to his right ear.

He is currently at John Hunter Hospital and expected to undergo surgery.

The 28-year-old man attended Raymond Terrace Police Station on Sunday where he spoke with detectives and was charged with wound with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.

He was refused bail.
