A HEREFORDSHIRE woman has been sentenced after a racially aggravated incident.
Callie Leeth appeared before magistrates in Hereford for sentencing this month after entering guilty pleas to two counts of assault by beating and one count of causing racially aggravated intentional harassment, alarm or distress.
The court heard from prosecutor Lauren Millichip that the 21-year-old had attacked two men and racially abused another person in Ross-on-Wye on November 19 last year.
