A TERRIFIED mother feared she had been disfigured with acid after she was sprayed in the face during a parking feud with her neighbour.

The woman was going shopping with her six-year-old son when she was hit with a blue liquid after clashing with neighbour Kim Marshall over her car being blocked in outside her home.

During the incident Marshall, 41, who was reportedly drunk at 9am, was waving her arms about and shouting: Who do you think you are talking to?” before squirting the mystery substance from a plastic bottle over the victim's face, hands and clothing.

She began to suffer a bad reaction to the substance and was admitted to hospital for treatment, Tameside Magistrates Court heard.

The type of substance thrown in her face is not known.

She told police: This incident has terrified me, not only for myself but for my young son who was also scared. This happened so close to my address, somewhere I should feel safe. Now I am thinking of moving. I was in genuine fear for my life. I had no idea what the substance was and what effect it could have on me.
