The accused, a strip club dancer, was charged with aggravated assault after punching an intoxicated patron outside the club.
The patron fell and suffered internal head injuries and facial bruising.
The court rejected the accused's claims of self-defence and consensual fight, finding he was the aggressor.
However, the court found reasonable doubt as to whether the punch caused the patron's fall and subsequent internal head injuries, given the patron's extreme intoxication and the uneven pavement.
The court found the accused guilty of the lesser included offence of assault causing bodily harm based on the facial injuries sustained directly from the punch.
