A student had her teeth knocked out when she was brutally knocked unconscious in an unprovoked attack outside a supermarket.
Georgia Jennings, 20, from Birmingham, was on her way home after a night out when she was assaulted outside Asda in Wolverhampton, between 3am and 3.50am on April 1.
Posting on social media, Georgia said her attacker was a white male, with short brown hair and was wearing a white top and a black coat at the time.
The University of Wolverhampton photography student says she remembers a man approaching her from behind, before punching her in the side of the head and knocking her unconscious.
She said that when she came round the man had left the scene and she still had all of her possessions on her.
She spent eight hours in hospital following the attack.
The 20-year-old said the attack has now left her afraid to return to Wolverhampton, and is now urging others to think twice before walking home late at night.
She said: ‘I fell full force to the floor, hitting my face and body off the concrete, causing damage to my face, head, teeth, hands and leg.

‘Not only the physical damage, I have also been left mentally affected and so far unable to return to Wolverhampton.
‘After being given the all clear my cuts, swelling and bruising will all heal, however the same can not be said for my teeth.
‘I am going to have to go through the expensive process of having three of my teeth fixed. The result of this has left me extremely self conscious and afraid to leave the house.’
She added: ‘I urge anyone who does or plans to walk home alone at night to rethink. It is not worth the risk.

‘Please take the safer option and take a taxi. The cost of a taxi may seem expensive but it is not worth your life.
‘I am lucky that the damage caused by my attack can be fixed, however the result of this could have been a lot more severe.’
