MIAMI (AP) – A Miami police officer on Saturday fatally shot a naked man who was chewing on the face of another man on a downtown causeway off-ramp, police and witnesses said.The Miami Herald reports that gunshots were heard at about 2 p.m. on the MacArthur Causeway off-ramp, which is near the newspaper's offices. Witnesses said that a woman saw two men fighting and flagged down a police officer, who came upon a naked man mauling the other man. The newspaper quoted witnesses as saying that the officer ordered the naked man to back away, and when he ignored the demand, the officer shot him. Witnesses said that the naked man continued his attack after being shot once, and the officer shot him several more times.
Police said the other man was transported to Jackson Memorial Hospital Ryder Trauma Center. The newspaper said he had suffered critical injuries.
The police department confirmed in a news release that there was an officer-related shooting, but did not include many details provided by witnesses to the newspaper.
A police spokesman couldn't be reached for comment by the Associated Press on Saturday evening.
The police news release said the identities of the two men were not known.
A photograph posted on The Herald's website shows an officer standing watch on the ramp next to two police cruisers, with a body lying on a pedestrian walkway. Police requested the newspaper's video surveillance tapes.
The shooting and investigation tied up causeway traffic as crowds were arriving at South Beach for an annual hip-hop festival.
Javier Ortiz, a spokesman for the Fraternal Order of Police in Miami, said that based on information he's received, the officer who fired the shots "is a hero and saved a life." So... I'd be interested to know if it were a headshot that finally put him down. And would watch the guy that got gnawed on. Like have him restrained type watching. Just in case.

No no, you're thinking of ghosts.

Trigger-happy cops shot at a couple of gays and killed one of them.

Can't really see much but the report from the cop is just insane.

You know of all the things I can think of. Walking upon a guy eating someone's face is something that would be high on the list of things that would freak me out!

That's the first thing that came to my mind when I first heard the news. Scary stuff

[amimabremiBit]

Should have just run back out and let Barry Burton kill it...

[tsaaapla]

Sure sounds like Resident Evil.

Police said Eugene may have been high on a new experimental form of LSD "'The guy was like tearing him to pieces with his mouth and I told him to get off. But the guy just kept eating the other guy away, like ripping his skin," Mr Vega told WSVN.He said a police officer also ordered the man to "get off" but the attacker just growled at him with a piece of flesh still hanging from his mouth.Mr Vega said the man continued to eat until he was shot dead.

Watch the paper have zombie prints on it

What surprises me is not the general reaction to the story, but those who are so butt hurt by it. This is a wonderful case where grizzly situation coincides with pop culture fixation. I mean, the guy kept eating his face after he'd been shot. Sure, it is lsd, or pcp, or a Kano freak out. Whatever it is, it is depressing as hell so we spice it up. It is much more interesting this way.

I bet the staff is watching that guy that was attacked a bit differently. I don't blame them.

[duceswild]

No sympathy from you guys about the poor bloke who's been blinded and been horribly dis-figured?
He'll probably be wishing he had died in the attack.

The attack is a bit reminiscent of the old 'angel dust' days.

I'm sure it says something about this in the Bible.

Geronimo 69:911

And when the bathroom is full, naked dudes shall wander the earth and eat your face off. Or something along those lines.

These follow-ups are horrible. Instead of insinuating what he MIGHT have been taking, why not draw a blood sample and test it?

[phpfoxmods]

The actual pictures of that poor guys face are pretty terrible, i wasn't expecting it to be that bad tbh, but that other guy really did chew most of his face off.

[masteryxisman]

Yeah pretty shocking, where is a half naked Milla Jovovich when you need her?
