Miami Police shoot & kill man trying to eat another man.

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Miami police shot and killed a man on the MacArthur Causeway Saturday afternoon, and police sources told CBS4 they had no choice: the naked man they shot was trying to chew the face off another naked man, and refused to obey police orders to stop his grisly meal.

The bizarre shooting happened shortly after 2 p.m., when police responded to a 911 call about two naked men fighting on a bike path along the Causeway, which was packed with traffic on a busy holiday weekend.

Miami police have not confirmed the details of what happened next, but sources close to the investigation told CBS4 News that officers found one man gnawing on the face of another, in what one police source called the most gruesome thing he’d ever seen.

The fight was taking place at the causeway exit near the Miami Herald building, and amazed officers tried to stop it, ordering the man making a meal out of the other man to stop.

Sources told CBS4 that the man refused to obey, and continued his attack. Investigators sharing limited details about the confrontation, saying only that the two men were fighting and the officers felt they had no choice but to take deadly force.

“During this confrontation an officer did discharge his weapon striking one of the individuals, said Det. Willie Moreno, spokesperson for Miami Police.

But the sources close to the investigation say that dry recitation of the facts apparently doesn’t go far enough. They said the man still would not give in to police commands, so officers fired again.

“That individual has lost his life right now,” Moreno said.

With the attacker dead, lying nude on the pavement, officers and paramedics were able to get to his victim and rush him to Jackson Memorial Hospital. Police sources say the man had virtually no face and was unrecognizable.

Police have shared no information about his identity or condition.

Once the bizarre confrontation came to an end, police were left with the task of figuring out what had happened. The investigation forced the closure of the causeway from Miami Beach to Miami, and also closed an exit to the causeway from I-95.

The investigation snarled traffic for hours and delayed thousands of motorists until ways could be found to get them off the causeway.

Police have had little official to say about the details, and have not released the name of the cannibalistic attacker.

Jesus.

OMFG....Bizarre is not the word!

Imagine being an onlooker though, you'd think for a minute zombies exist

Was the perpetrator carryind a nice bottle of Chianti ?

Poor man - he clearly needed some serious psychiatric help.

I'd have preferred the police to save their bullets for paedophiles and child abusers.

Awful for the victim of course..... . :shocked:

supposedly the victim was a homeless man.

there is speculation that they were both on crack or meth, because often with crack and meth people can get a high body temperature, and so they take off their clothes.

There's pictures of it, I daren't look.

I had to Google them...God knows why. Just awful.

WARNING: Graphic images. Don't look if you have a faint heart

Spoiler:

I don't know why either.

and now I'm scarred for life

Ah, fair enough :)

Oh jesus i just saw the pics. All that was caused by the man taking bites out of his face while he was still alive. How long would it take eat that much of a person's face? it must have taken quite a while.

Ahhh curiosity got the best of me :(

At least there's blood so you can't see the worst of the damage

Would hate to be an onlooker

Someone reblogged the pictures on Tumblr yesterday :bored: I didn't want to see them at all, I pretty much unfollowed them on the spot afterwards. It's not something I wanted nor needed to see.

Jesus suffering that poor man - don't read if you are squeamish

Spoiler:

Horrid thing to say but I do wonder if it would have been better than he hadn't survived. :(

Surgery can work miracles these days, look at what's her name...Katie something...the girl who had acid thrown at her. He'll probably never be fully healed though obviously but still.

How gruesome, the poor guy. I hope they can do a good job with the wounds to his face,as Dezzy said,it's amazing what can be done these days but this is a truly awful incident.

Why did I look at those photos especially when I just woke up :bored:

Horrible horrible story :S
