Kiwi Beauty Blogger Bottled In Napier Bar By 'Follower'

Blogger Sally Jo Hickey, the daughter of former TVNZ weatherman Jim Hickey, has revealed in a video posted to YouTube that she was verbally abused and had a glass smashed on her head by a "viewer" in the Thirsty Whale bar during her first visit to Napier.

Hickey, who has more than 100,000 subscribers to her channel, was on the bar's deck, mid-photo with a fan, when a woman screamed her name. "They sounded really aggro, then next minute, whack!" she said in her post. "I looked down and there was glass all over me. I'm actually, like, panicking reliving it."

Napier Labour MP Stuart Nash said if the facts were right it warranted charges.

Sally posted a video to her YouTube channel explaining the incident.
