A homeless woman admitted attacking five police officers when she appeared in court.

Ellisia Bone, 19, who lives in a tent at The Warren in Folkestone, also pleaded guilty to assaulting a man when she appeared at Medway Magistrates' Court on Monday.

The court heard Bone carried out the assaults on the officers and another man on April 19 in Ashford and that at the time she'd had some mental health problems.

District Judge Stephen Leake decided to adjourn sentencing for an all options pre-sentencing report to be carried out on Bone.

She will next appear at Folkestone Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, October 12 and was granted bail until then.
