A Scots social worker has been left scared to leave the house after she was knocked unconscious and beaten black and blue by strangers at an event at the Edinburgh Fringe.
Ellen Clarkson, from Broxburn, was battered at the Hot Dub Time Machine show at the Royal Highland Centre on the outskirts of the capital at around 1.15am on Sunday, August 21. The 23-year-old says she was set upon by an older man and group of females as she celebrated her birthday with friends.
The man, who was said to be in his 30’s, allegedly punched Ellen in the face and knocked her unconscious before two females began kicking her in the face and head. Shocking images shared by Ellen show her bruised and swollen face.
Speaking to Edinburgh Live, Ellen said: "I’ve just returned from the hospital, where they confirmed that I have a displaced facial fracture on my cheekbone which could require surgery to fix, but we won’t know until the swelling has gone down.
"I’m genuinely scared to leave my front door unattended at the moment. I’m not a confrontational person. I try to see the good in everyone but this has honestly taken me aback.
"I’m a social worker and the injuries I have sustained mean that I am going to need to take a lot of time off work."
Her boyfriend was also allegedly beaten and placed in a headlock while being forced to watch Ellen being attacked. It is thought Ellen was attacked after the group mistakenly identified her as someone who had attacked a family member of the group.
Ellen's mum shared a heartbreaking post on Facebook in a bid to track down those involved. Sharing pictures of her daughter's face, Cassandra Jayne wrote: “We are looking for any witnesses to help the police with their investigation.

A delivery driver who claims he was viciously kicked in the head after being ‘attacked by a road rage driver ’ has slammed police after they gave him with a recorded caution instead. James McGoldrick called officers for help after being followed by a man who had earlier cut him off on the road while he was on his way to drop off food in East Kilbride last November. The 59-year-old claims he was knocked to the ground and repeatedly punched and kicked by the man as he tried to defend himself. But James, who is also a carer for his partner, claims that Police Scotland officers did not arrive at his home to take a statement until two days after the incident - and that they failed to record any information about his injuries. After around two weeks without contact from cops, the dad-of-two says officers then turned up at his partner’s home and slapped him with a formal police caution while allegedly stating that he had just ‘been in a fight and lost’. James, who believes he is a victim of injustice, told the Record: “I ended up with a concussion but they’re trying to say it was a wee stramash.
Leo Barraclough International Features Editor In “The March on Rome,” which world premieres in the Venice Days sidebar of Venice Film Festival Wednesday, Northern Irish-Scottish filmmaker Mark Cousins tracks the ascent of fascism in Italy in the 1920s, and its fall-out across 1930s Europe. He also draws a dotted line from those events to the storming of the Capitol in Washington, D.C., in January 2021. The documentary, illustrated with archive footage and Cousins’ characteristic cinematic analysis, starts with Donald Trump defending his decision to retweet a quote from Italian dictator Benito Mussolini: “It is better to live one day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep.” Later in the film, Cousins inserts footage of Trump supporters attacking the Capitol, hoping to overturn Joe Biden’s electoral victory.
