A BOOZED-up yob laughed as she broke a woman’s nose after headbutting her in a nightclub horror attack.
Katie Bromley, 41, twice lashed out at terrified Ryleigh Parfitt during the night out at Vibez in Gwent, South Wales.

She attacked after first shoving one of the victim’s pals – before asking: “What the f**k are you looking at?”
Bromley then held Ryleigh’s head in place as she headbutted her violently in the face.
A police officer took Ryleigh to hospital where she blacked out on the way.
She was later treated for a fractured nose and tender jaw following the June 18 horror.
Bromley avoided jail after admitting assault occasioning actual bodily harm and was instead handed a 12-month suspended sentence.
In a victim impact statement, Ryleigh told how her confidence has been “knocked massively” following the attack.
She added: “This attack was completely uncalled for and it came out of the blue.
“I suffer from flashbacks and it has caused me severe anxiety.
“I was worried that I wouldn’t look the same again.
“I was also petrified of seeing the defendant again in the local area.”
As well as her suspended sentence, Bromley was also ordered to pay £500 in compensation and pay £200 costs and a £187 surcharge.
Sentencing, Judge Paul Hopkins KC told Bromley: “This was deplorable violence.”
