A TEENAGE girl lost five front teeth in a serious assault outside a popular Bicester nightspot.

The attack outside G's winebar in Deans Court has increased police fears that the venue has become a magnet for trouble.

The 17-year-old from Bicester was punched in the face by another woman in the early hours last Friday.

Bicester police chief Insp David Whitaker said it was the latest in a series of disturbances over the past 18 months.

Winebar owner George Smith said a security camera video of the incident had been handed to police. He said it appeared to show the victim going up to the other female and throwing a punch.
