A man has been jailed for throwing a full kettle of boiling water over a woman in Skegness, leaving her with severe injuries.

Callum Arboine threw boiling water over a 26-year-old woman in the lounge of a property on Gloucester Close in Skegness. The victim fled to a nearby Tesco to seek help. She suffered substantial scolding to her face and a large proportion of her upper body.

The woman required multiple surgeries and skin grafts as a result of her injuries. Arboine, of Ridgedale View, Ripley, Derbyshire, was arrested on 17 April and appeared at Lincoln Crown Court on 21 September, where he pleaded guilty to causing grievous bodily harm.

On 16 October, he was sentenced to four years and ten months in prison. He was also issued a six-year restraining order preventing him from contacting the victim. Detective Constable Rebecca Graves said the attack was 'violent and wholly unacceptable' and that the victim 'showed immense courage and resilience' throughout the investigation and court proceedings.
