A barber has been convicted after attacking a man with scissors in Brighton.
A barber from Brighton has been jailed for 5 years after stabbing a man with a pair of scissors, causing his 24-year-old victim's lung to collapse.
20-year-old Adam Pirot, of Roedean Road in Brighton, was working in a barbershop in Preston Street in November 2022 when he launched the attack following a disagreement.
