This is the shocking moment a nightclub reveller was left scarred for life after being slammed in the face with a shot glass by a drunken thug on the dancefloor.

Jake Saxon, 23, launched the brutal unprovoked attack in The Vault, on High Street, Buxton, Derbyshire, on September 12 last year.

The mechanical engineer admitted assault occasioning grievous bodily harm and was jailed for 12 months at Derby Crown Court on July 29. 

A court heard Saxon approached the man and said something to him which the victim did not hear - before stepping back and slamming a shot glass into his face.

Disturbing CCTV footage, released by Derbyshire Police, shows the victim with blood pouring down his face following the vicious assault at around 1.10am.

He was taken to hospital where he needed stitches for the wound and he has been left with permanent facial scarring. 

Saxon was ejected by bouncers before being arrested the following day by police at his home in Leek, Staffordshire.

PC Lora Holdgate, of Derbyshire Police, said afterwards: 'Saxon is now facing the consequences of what was seemingly a split-second decision to carry out an unprovoked assault which left the victim with permanent scarring, and a lasting impact on his mental wellbeing.

'Although no sentence will make up for that, I hope that the result at court will offer him some closure.

'We would like to thank The Vault for their actions that evening and for working with us throughout the investigation to help ensure a conviction was secured.
