An aspiring model threw a wine glass at a bar manager’s face in a row over ID.

Glamorous Melika Gabidon, 21, was with a group of pals at Wetherspoons in Piccadilly when bar manager Stephanie Miller, 27, told them they would not be served as one of them did not have proof of age ID.

The group left but returned 20 minutes later when Gabidon began shouting and swearing at bar staff.

As Miss Miller intervened and told the group to leave, Gabidon hurled the contents of a glass of wine in her face before throwing the glass itself.

It was thrown with such force that it smashed as it hit her face.

As the bar manager struggled with Gabidon she was pulled to the ground by her hair.

Gabidon, who has an online modelling ‘portfolio’ claiming she would like to become an actress, was only restrained from continuing her assault when a woman trapped her in a ‘bear hug’ until police and paramedics arrived.

Miss Miller was treated for a one-inch gash to the head, a one-inch gash to the right side of her face, a broken finger, a bite mark to her arm and had to be given injections to guard against hepatitis because of the bite wound.

At Manchester Magistrates’ Court, Gabidon, of Altrincham, pleaded guilty to assault occasioning actual bodily harm in relation to the incident on June 1.

She will be sentenced at Crown Court next month after District Judge Mark Hadfield warned her that she could be looking at a heftier sentence than the maximum six months in prison he could impose.

Melika Gabidon:

Prosecuting, Tess Kenyon said: “Stephanie Miller, the duty manager, was alerted to a group causing problems. They were refused drinks because one of the group appeared to be underage. She approached one of the men and said they couldn’t be served. He took that well and started to leave.

“Twenty minutes later Miss Miller returned to the bar to find one member of staff crying. Some of the group returned and when refused alcohol they became verbally abusive to Miss Miller.

“She told members of the group they had to leave and told them why and at that point, Miss Gabidon stood up and threw the contents of a glass of wine in Miss Miller’s face, then went on to throw the glass at her which resulted in the glass hitting the right side of her face. It smashed on impact causing injuries.”

In a victim impact statement, Miss Miller said: “It has left me feeling shaken up and angry and anxious to approach customers. I had a bite mark on my forearm and on June 2 I went to A&E to get a hepatitis injection and had an x-ray which established I had a broken finger. I was given antibiotics and my finger was strapped up.”

Addressing Gabidon, who has no previous convictions, District Judge Hadfield added: “This was a repeated assault, there was use of a weapon and there were serious injuries.

“Even with full credit you could be looking at excess of six months. Bearing in mind the aggravating factors, this court’s sentencing powers are not sufficient.”
