Mother sues pub over injury at lingerie party

A mother of two who claims she injured her ribs when she was knocked down at an Ann Summers lingerie party has sued the pub where the event was held.

Sylvia Deehan, aged 46, of Maple Avenue, Ballybrack, Dublin, alleges she had been pushed by another woman who was striving to grab a prize, described in court “as a ring that goes around a certain part of a man”. The prize was thrown in the air by an Ann Summers rep in The Lough Inn at Loughlinstown, Co Dublin.

The alleged incident occurred as part of a ladies' night held in the public house prior to a performance by the ‘Hunks of Desire’ male stripper troupe.
