Suspect told officers he was homeless and that he’d been awake for “five days straight” due to something “possessing him.”
Police are investigating a bizarre murder in Las Vegas in which a suspect is accused of killing his victim and then consuming his face.
Police had received reports around 5am on Sunday about a man tackling another man near the Las Vegas strip.
“About 45 minutes later, another person called police, saying a man was on top of another man at a bus stop ‘eating’ the other man’s face,” according to 8NewsNow.com.
Police responding to the incident arrived to find 29-year-old Colin Czech with “biological matter in his hair, mouth and on his clothing,” crouched next to the victim.
Czech claimed to officers that the victim, Kenneth Brown, had attacked him.
“Brown had a large cut to part of his head and he was missing an eye and ear, according to documents the 8 News Now Investigators obtained.”
Slipping in and out of consciousness while in custody, Czech told officers he was homeless and that he’d been awake for “five days straight” due to something “possessing him.”
Additionally, Czech told officers he’d “used his teeth to hurt the victim, adding ‘he used his teeth to eat [the man’s] eyeballs and ears,’” according to documents obtained by 8NewsNow.com.
While Czech failed to appear for court on Monday, his next scheduled appearance is Wednesday, May 1, and he’s currently being held without bond.
