A mother accused of assaulting police was cleared yesterday after a court was shown CCTV footage of them attacking her. Stephanie Rutter, 25, can be seen being pinned down by four officers after she was stripped naked in a police cell.

The hairdresser had been arrested after a row with her boyfriend. When she arrived at the police station there was a bust-up and her clothes were cut off. Stephanie was then said to have attacked a woman police sergeant, a woman PC and a male and female detention officer.

But the charges were dropped after her lawyer produced the CCTV at Runcorn Magistrates' Court, Cheshire, England. Stephanie, from Runcorn, was shown being elbowed in the jaw and pinned to the floor. The mum of one was then handcuffed and put in leg restraints.

Stephanie said: "It was four on one - and they won. They left me in the cell with blood dripping down my face and covered in bruises. I thought my jaw was broken." She said she was "overjoyed" at being cleared, adding: "Justice has been done." She is now taking action against the officers.
