A woman who left a fellow nightclubber needing plastic surgery after savagely biting her on the hand because she was hungry, has been spared prison.Victoria Smith, 21, growled like a rabid animal before plunging her teeth into the left hand of Jamie Montgomery, 26, during a celebratory Christmas night out.The attack left the bar manager needing four operations and a fear she may have contracted a serious disease after her wounds became infected.She endured skin grafts harvested from her arm, to treat her horrific injuries as doctors initially thought she may have lost normal movement in her hand with the gaping causing serious damage to nerves and tendons.Smith was so ashamed of her actions when CCTV of her was released in the national press, she handed herself in to police.But amazingly she attacked AGAIN on April 11 this year, sinking her teeth into a victim's thumb despite being on bail for the offence on Jamie
