Beauty Queens In Fight Over Gladiator
Miss England has been arrested over claims she assaulted another beauty queen during a fight over her Gladiator boyfriend.
Rachel Christie, 21, allegedly punched Miss Manchester Sara Beverley Jones, 24, in the face at the Mansion nightclub in Manchester.
The incident happened during a party which Miss Christie attended with TV star Tornado, otherwise known as David McIntosh, 22.
Trouble flared between the two women after they argued over the 15-stone former Royal Marine, believed to be an ex-boyfriend of the Miss Manchester winner.
Miss Jones then wrote on her Twitter page on Monday morning: "Bad time last night, assaulted in a nightclub."
The comment has since been removed.
Miss Christie, the niece of former sprinter Linford Christie, was arrested on suspicion of assault and questioned by officers before being released on bail.
A spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said: "At about 12.55am on Monday 2 November 2009, police received a report of an assault at a club on Deansgate Court, Manchester City Centre.
"It is believed that, earlier that night, a 24-year-old woman got into an altercation with another woman in the club and was hit in the face several times.
"The victim was taken to Hope Hospital where she received treatment for superficial facial injuries. She has now been discharged.
