A man has been jailed following an assault outside a bar in Bournemouth that left a man with facial injuries.

Kyle Fidler, aged 28 and of Bournemouth, pleaded guilty to wounding with intent and was sentenced to nine years in prison at a hearing at Bournemouth Crown Court on Tuesday 19 December 2023.

At around 3.30am on Friday 2 June 2023, the defendant and the victim, a man aged in his 20s, met in a bar in Holdenhurst Road which led to an altercation where the victim was pushed to the floor. Shortly after, the defendant and victim fought outside where the victim was punched in the face multiple times and had his nose bitten off by the defendant.

The victim was taken to hospital for treatment to severe facial injuries.

Fidler was arrested by officers later that evening.

Detective Constable Natasha Beaufils, of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole CID, said: “Following a robust and proactive response from our officers, we were able to identify Fidler, bring him into custody and hold him to account for his actions.

“Violent behaviour such as this will not be tolerated in Dorset and we will do all we can to identify those responsible and bring them before the court.”
