A THUG who glassed a security guard at a railway station has been locked up for 15-months.
The 37-year-old victim was left with broken front teeth and needed several stitches to repair the wound to his face.
Lee Senk, 21, had been out drinking when he turned up at Grays railway station.
Senk and his pal both walked in drinking from pint glasses at 11pm on January 9 this year.
The security guard saw them and asked them to finish their drinks outside, or hand them over.
Instead, Senk smashed the guard in the face with the glass.
It sliced clean through the middle of his upper lip and smashed his front teeth.
Investigating officer PC Tim Hewitt said: “This was a nasty attack on a guard who was just doing his job and trying to work to make the railway a safer place.
“This attack could have been much worse, but fortunately Senk did not smash the glass fully into the guard’s face.
“This conviction should serve as as warning to anyone who assaults rail or security staff that the sentence imposed reflects the seriousness of the incident.”
Senk, formerly from South Ockendon, but now of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty to one count of causing actual bodily harm when he appeared at Basildon Crown Court.
He has been on remand since his arrest in February.
