A woman fears she was spiked while visiting a Christmas market in Manchester after she discovered what appeared to be a 'pin prick' on her leg.
Anya Whitaker-Keating, 19, believes she was spiked while visiting Manchester from her home in Leeds with her friend on November 20.
Speaking about her experience, Anya said she had been enjoying some drinks at the market before blacking out and waking up the next morning in her hotel room.
She said she had only had two glasses of wine and some beer before blacking out.

Upon waking up, she said she felt 'really drowsy' and her friend told her she had been acting as if she had been extremely drunk.
Anya, who works in sales, said: 'It got to about 4 or 5 o'clock and I started to feel a bit drowsy and that's the last thing that I can remember.
'We booked a hotel, but I don't remember going to it, I just remember waking up in the morning and I was sweating and did not know what happened.'
A day later, at the start of the new week, Anya said she noticed a small mark at the top of her leg, and after calling the doctors, was advised to go to A&E where she was given a Hepatitis B jab.
Blood samples were also taken away to be analysed, but the results have not yet come back and doctors were unable to confirm at the time whether or not she had in fact been spiked.

Looking back on the experience, Anya said: 'It's horrendous. I was really shocked as I've seen this happening to other people and I was just shocked that it happened.'
She added that the incident has made her more cautious now and that she does not feel like going out again for some time.
Greater Manchester Police have since confirmed that the have been made aware of the incident and that enquiries are now underway.
Councillor Pat Karney, the town hall's city centre spokesman, said: 'We are, of course, horrified to hear of this report. No one enjoying themselves at the Christmas Markets - or any venue in the city centre for that matter - should have their safety put at risk.
'We want our Christmas Markets to be a safe place and security are posted across each of the event spaces and are very visible.
'If you see anyone acting suspiciously or you are worried that you may have been spiked, please speak to a security guard and you will receive help.'
