When another guest tried to stop him, Russell pushed him against a picture hanging on the wall, cutting his head on the glass and severing a tendon in his finger.
The hotel was left with a £1,250 bill to cover repairs.

He was given a 40-week prison sentence, suspended for a year, and banned from all licenses premises for the next 12 months.
