Press and Journal
A receptionist at a Dundee hotel was headbutted four times by a drunken Aberdeen guest who demanded to know the whereabouts of his fed-up partner.
Lhiam Barrett subjected the nightshift worker at the Kingsway West Premier Inn to the alcohol-fuelled attack after his partner asked for another room.
The 32-year-old repeatedly demanded to know where the woman had gone and turned violent after the worker refused to disclose where she was.
“The accused headbutted him four times, which connected with the complainer’s face and he punched him once, striking him to the face.”
‘He is utterly ashamed’Barrett, of Aberdeen, previously admitted assaulting the man to his injury at Premier Inn, Kingsway West, on January 26 2025.
