A barber has been convicted after attacking a man with scissors in Brighton.
A barber from Brighton has been jailed for 5 years after stabbing a man with a pair of scissors, causing his 24-year-old victim's lung to collapse.
20-year-old Adam Pirot, of Roedean Road in Brighton, was working in a barbershop in Preston Street in November 2022 when he launched the attack following a disagreement.
Pirot followed the 24-year-old victim out of the shop armed with the weapon before repeatedly stabbing and slashing him, causing serious injuries including a collapsed lung.
Following searches of addresses linked to the suspect, evidence was located linking Pirot to the crime, and he was arrested on December 8, 2022 on suspicion of grievous bodily harm with intent.
