A MUM shamed as a lager lout after starting a string of boozy brawls in her hometown has avoided jail after blaming the town for her bad behaviour.

Tyler Murray, 26, has been repeatedly in and out of courts after causing drunken trouble when frequenting her local pubs and takeaways.

In one incident in Macclesfield, Cheshire, Murray kicked a policeman in the face and hurled racist abuse as she was being detained for being aggressive towards door staff at a bar in the town.

In another, she called a barmaid a "p****" when she was refused alcohol and was subsequently accused of calling another pub worker a "P*** b******* when she was thrown out.

She later cited Macclesfield itself, which is ranked as one of the 'happiest in the UK, as a factor in her behaviour, saying: "I just don't like the town."

At Crewe magistrates court, mother-of-three Murray, who lives on the Weston estate in Macclesfield, admitted using threatening behaviour but denied making racist comments. She was ordered to pay £50 damages to barmaid Jenna Naylor and a further £50 compensation to her pub colleague.
