A man has been charged over an alleged glassing assault at a hotel in Parramatta earlier this week.

About 9.30pm on Thursday 29 November 2012, a 39-year-old man was inside a hotel on James Ruse Drive in Parramatta, when was allegedly involved in a confrontation with a 45-year-old man.

It’s alleged the 39-year-old man followed the younger man outside and poured the contents of a drink over the 45-year-old’s head before smashing the glass into the left side of his face.

Police will further allege the 39-year-old man then punched the 45-year-old to the face a number of times until staff and patrons intervened. The younger man left the hotel and police from Rosehill Local Area Command were contacted.

Detectives patrolling the area spotted the 39-year-old man walking on nearby Alfred Street and he was placed under arrest.

The man was conveyed to Auburn Hospital, under guard, where he underwent surgery for severed tendons to his right hand.

The 45-year-old man was taken to Westmead Hospital for treatment of his facial injuries.

Yesterday (Saturday 1 December 2012), the 39-year-old Gorokan man was released from hospital and taken to Parramatta Police Station.

There he was charged with wound with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and refused bail to appear at the Parramatta Bail Court later today (Sunday 2 December 2012).
