Miami police are trying to figure out exactly why a naked man would attempt to chew off the face of another man. As if straight out of a zombie movie, police shot dead a naked man Saturday who had mauled up to 80 percent of another man’s face, according to the local NBC 6 station. “Seventy-five to 80 percent of his face was missing, and he was actually swallowing pieces of the man's face,” a law enforcement official said. Sources tell the Miami Herald the attacker also tried to gouge out his victim’s eyes.
Miami’s WSVN-Fox 7 talks to a man who was riding his bicycle when he came upon a scene he described as out of a horror movie: “And the guy was like tearing him to pieces with his mouth, so I told him, 'Get off!'” he said. “You know it's like the guy just kept eating the other guy away like ripping his skin.”
A police officer then approached and told the man to step away from the victim, “and the guy just stood his head up like that with a piece of flesh in his mouth and growled,” according to the witness. The officer then fired, but the attacker didn't stop chewing off his victim's face until he was killed, according to WSVN.
