Detectives have since established that the duo had just gatecrashed at a Christmas party to which their mutual friend had been invited and went on to outstay their welcome, and behaved savagely after the level of kindness that had been extended to them.

The little baby’s mother who retired to bed early after taking care of her guests was shocked after being woken up at 2am by concerned friends, who saw the trending videotape and shared with her.
