A young Scots mum has been left with massive bald patches on her head after having her hair ripped out in chunks.
Taylor Arbuckle was allegedly attacked while out with pals at Society Bar and Nightclub in Kirkcaldy, Fife, on Saturday night.
The 20-year-old shared pictures of her shocking injuries on social media which show scratches on her throat and bruising around her eye.
One image shows where a large chunk of hair has been ripped out by the roots leaving her scalp exposed.
The alleged attacker, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is understood to be known by the victim.
Beautician Taylor tweeted: “I was out to enjoy myself last night and ended up getting attacked 3 times.
“No idea how the bouncers didn’t manage to grab the bloody animal after the 1st time but there is no need for this at all.”
The social media post has since been shared more than 300 times with Twitter users horrified at the extent of her injuries.
One wrote: “She full on derooted your hair? I’m assuming it will grow back? What was the cause? This sort of behaviour is not acceptable. The world’s gone mad.”
Another wrote: “I don’t know you sweetheart but I’ve got three daughters. I’m enraged she’s done this to you. Please, please go to the police. Sending hugs. You’re a beautiful girl.”
A third commented: “I’m so sorry this happened to you. This is devastating and nobody deserves this.”
While a fourth said: “The amount of hair she’s ripped out! You must be in agony, you poor thing. I hope this animal is arrested and locked up for a very long time. I’m so sorry.”
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Officers received a report of a woman having been assaulted on Charlotte Street, Kirkcaldy on Saturday, 17 July, 2021.
“Enquiries are at an early stage.”
