He broke the jaw, eye socket and nose of one of the victims.

A Nuneaton man has been jailed for 18 months for attacking two women after a night out.

Kane Harris, 30, assaulted a woman and her friend as he was given a lift home. During an argument, Harris grabbed the wheel of the car forcing it to come to a stop in Binley Woods.

He then dragged the first victim out of the car by her hair and slapped her face.

When the other woman intervened he threw her face-first against the car breaking her jaw, eye socket and nose and leaving her with a bleed on the brain.

Detective Constable Lydia Crouch from Rugby CID said: “This was a terrifying incident which left one of his victims with horrific injuries. Our community is a safer place with Harris behind bars.”
