A FERAL mum screamed “I’ll f***ing kill you” as she dragged a rival parent to the ground and kicked her in the face at the school gates.
Jessica Kitching, 25, was collecting her daughter from school when she launched into the savage attack on the other mum.
The pair’s two children were friends but had falling out during the holidays.
Kitching pulled the victim to the ground by her ponytail and knelt on her chest in front of horrified school kids.
The thug then repeatedly kicked the woman in the face as she begged her to stop, Lancs Live reports.
As Kitching was dragged away by a pal, she yelled out: “I know where you live. I’ll f***ing kill you.”
She pleaded guilty to assault occasioning ABH but was spared jail as her daughter would suffer.
Kitching was instead handed a 30 week sentence, suspended for 12 months.
Preston Crown Court was told the horror attack unfolded in Lancaster in September 2023.
The victim was taken to hospital with grazes and bruises to her face and a suspected hairline fracture on her nose.
In a statement, she said she was embarrassed and humiliated to have been attacked on the school run in front of other parents and children.
The mum told the court she considered changing her child’s school as a result and was also left terrified that Kitching would come to her home.
Since the attack the children have played out together and there have been no further incidents, she added.
The court heard Kitching, who has no previous convictions, is ashamed of her vile actions.
As well as a suspended sentence, she was ordered to complete 15 days of rehabilitation activities and complete 60 hours of unpaid work.
Sentencing, Recorder Ayesha Siddiqi said: “This happened near a school and in the presence of children.
“You were unable to control your behaviour in front of the children.
“She must have been terrified by being pulled to the floor and kicked by you. There was the use of a shod foot as a weapon.
“Your behaviour that day was appalling.”
