A man who attacked bouncers with a machete after he was thrown out of a club in Essex has been jailed for ten years.

Ronnie Olliffe from Leigh's been found guilty of GBH with intent after a trial at Basildon Crown Court.

The 31-year-old from Highlands Boulevard was kicked out of the The Sun Rooms in Market Place, Southend, on March 26.

But he came back to the club with a machete and attacked the door staff - leaving one man with life-changing hand injuries.

Dc Glen Crosby said: "Olliffe is a nasty, vicious man who armed himself with a machete and attacked door staff after he was thrown out of a club in Southend last March. He has received a lengthy sentence which reflects the severity of his crime."
