A man will face court next month after an alleged glassing incident on the Mid North Coast yesterday.
About 4.35pm (Wednesday 14 July 2021), two men – aged 50 and 64 – were seated inside a pub on High Street, Wauchope, when a verbal altercation broke out.
It's then alleged the older man grabbed a glass and smashed it on the younger man's face and neck.
Staff contacted police who attended a short time later.
The 50-year-old was taken to Port Macquarie Base Hospital for treatment to lacerations on his face and neck.
Officers from Mid North Coast Police District established a crime scene and arrested the older man.
He was also taken to hospital for treatment to a hand injury before being conveyed to Port Macquarie Police Station and charged with wound with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
