A student, who bit off part of a man’s ear in a York nightclub, was in court last week for his trial.

The incident happened in the early hours of 26th January 2022 in York’s popular nightclub, Kuda.

Joshua McGowan, 21, is a maths student at the University of York and last week stated that he had no recollection of the violent incident due to the amount of alcohol he consumed on the night.

It was revealed that the victim wasn’t drunk.

McGowan has been released on bail and will be sentenced next month on 23rd June.
