A 32-year-old woman has admitting biting and butting a woman as she robbed her in a Dundee street.
Jade Laing, a prisoner in Ratho House, Edinburgh, stole the woman’s mobile phone while carrying out the attack.
Depute fiscal Nicola Gillespie said the victim and a friend had travelled into the city centre to visit the Tayside Drugs Problem Service.
Ms Gillespie said: “They saw the accused standing on the pavement outside. The accused approached and asked if she could go into the alley and speak to her.”
When the complainer refused Laing took hold of her and walked her into the alley.
Ms Gillespie continued: “The accused took hold of the complainer and butted her on the head and bit her on the body. She was bitten on the right upper arm.”
Laing went through the pockets of her victim and stole her Samsung Galaxy Fame mobile phone.
Sheriff Lorna Drummond heard Laing had been sentenced to 29 months in prison in June for a previous assault and robbery.
She warned Laing she could face a further prison term and deferred sentence for criminal justice social work reports.
Laing admitted that on June 9, at Salem Street, Dundee, she assaulted a woman and seized her by the body, butted her on the head with her head and bit her on the body, all to her injury, and robbed her of a mobile phone.
