A man's ear was torn in half and his face and neck were slashed when he was attacked with a glass at a Coromandel pub early this morning.
The 23-year-old man was part of a group from Pukekohe who had been on a social club outing at the Tui Lodge in Coromandel township.
Senior Constable John Morrissey of Coromandel police said the group had drunk too much alcohol before a fight broke out between a few of them about 1am.
One of the men was struck in the face by a glass object, which sliced off half of his ear.
He also suffered cuts to his face and neck.
