A Vancouver woman is facing extensive surgery in Mexico after being attacked.
Jamie Coutts was on vacation with a friend in Playa del Carmen when a man assaulted them at a bar Saturday night.
Police in Mexico said they have arrested Peter Nowaczeck, who is a professional boxer from Ontario.
On social media, Coutts’ friend posted that the man had been coming on to them at the Coyote Lounge Bar and wouldn’t take no for an answer.
He then turned around as if to walk away, but then turned back, “ran at her full speed and punched her until she was unconscious,” according to another friend, Saturn Rose, who is in Vancouver.
“She’s obviously in so much pain,” Rose said after talking to Coutts Tuesday morning. “She’s really sad. She’s just not doing well.”
She said Coutts’ nose is broken in three places and she is struggling to breathe. She also has a chipped tooth and a severely injured eye.
