A SPURNED clubber beat up six women who resisted her amorous advances - in a bar called Loons.

Kimberley McLeod, 28, “misread the signs” she thought she was getting from the women who were innocently dancing together.

She walked over to two of them, grabbed their faces and kissed them, going berserk as they pushed her away.

The beatings handed out to the six women left all of them battered and bruised, feeling afraid to go out in public and one of them suffering facial disfigurement which lasted months.

The woman had her nose burst by one of McLeod’s wild punches. The injury developed into a condition called Bell’s Palsy, causing her face to droop on one side.

In a victim statement, she told Teesside magistrates: “This happened for no reason at all.

“I can’t understand how a person can have such hate inside them to physically attack other people.

“I am thankful for just one thing, although I suffered this horrendous attack I know that it was in no way personal against me.”

Prosecutor Lynn Dalton told the court the woman had felt her nose “pop and start pouring with blood” as McLeod indiscriminately lashed out in the Hartlepool pub.

McLeod, who lives with her same-sex partner in Innes Road, Hartlepool, admitted six charges of assault and two counts of sexual assault arising from the unwanted kisses she planted on the women.

One of her victims described how she grabbed her by the head and neck and kissed her face, only to be pummelled to the floor when she struggled from her grasp.

Another of the women told police: “It felt as though I had been punched by a man.”

John Relton, mitigating, said: “Due to some Dutch courage she misread the signs and was influenced into making making sexual advances which upset these ladies.

“The ladies involved took appropriate evasive action and my client knows she should have walked away.

“There was a coming together of these ladies friends, coming to help them and she hit out.”

Mr Relton said that when she was working, her job as a safety worker in the petrochemical industry was well-paid.

Chairman of the bench Martin Slimings told her she had carried out “multiple, persistent, unprovoked assaults.”

McLeod was given a 17-week prison sentence, which was suspended for two years, and was ordered to pay £150 costs to each of her victims.
