"The guy who was with Sarah attacked my boyfriend, then she attacked me. She grabbed my hair and pulled me to the ground, then she started to punch me.

"The man she was with kicked me on the head and it banged against the wall. Both of them jumped in a taxi when a man ran over and started shouting at them.

"I've made a complaint to the police because the pair of them acted like thugs and I'm so upset at what happened.

"I'm really shocked that she would act like this towards me."
