A beauty therapist has admitted assaulting three other women during a wild night out in Moray.
Rachel Paterson, of Duff Place in Elgin, pled guilty to carrying out a trio of attacks in Sandison’s bar on Buckie’s East Church Street on October 29 last year.
The 30-year-old first assaulted Nicola Cunningham by throwing a plastic tumbler at her, seizing her by the hair and “repeatedly” punching her on the head.
Paterson then turned her attention to Emma Ritchie, who she seized by the hair and “forced to the ground, then repeatedly punched on the head”.
The third victim was Eilidh Shearer, who Paterson seized by the hair.
Paterson’s lawyer requested that reports be prepared prior to sentencing.
Sheriff Olga Pasportnikov agreed to defer sentence until Thursday July 5.
