Detectives are hunting a girl who nearly blinded a bouncer she hurled a wine glass at in a row outside a nightclub.

The clubber threw the empty glass at the security guard after a fight between two men at Gabeto nightclub in North London.

As the bouncer broke up the scrap, the suspect hurled the glass, leaving the victim with glass embedded just below his right eye.

The victim, who is in his 30s, was treated at a north London hospital to have the glass removed after the attack on October 14 at 2.10am.

CCTV footage shows a woman throwing a drink over another man in the club just before attacking the guard.
