A man has been jailed for 15 months after headbutting a man so hard he needed reconstructive surgery to his face.

Jamie Liley, 38, from Scarborough, was sentenced at York Crown Court on Thursday after pleading guilty to causing grievous bodily harm during the attack at a pub in the town in December 2023.

The victim needed more than 20 stitches after being headbutted twice by Liley, who was stopped by members of the public who witnessed the attack, according to North Yorkshire Police.

Det Con Sam Rivers said the sentence was a reminder “that this type of behaviour can have serious consequences”.

He said the victim deserved credit “for his patience and solidarity going through the court process”.

“The evidence gathered early on by police forced the defendant to plead guilty on the first day of his trial,” he said.
