Drunken Chinese man tries to eat woman's face during 'cannibal' assault

New York, July 2 (ANI): A drunken bus driver was detained in China after he attacked a woman in her car and tried to chew off her face during an attack on Tuesday afternoon.

According to Shanghai Daily's website, the police said that the man identified as "Dong" ran into a road near a bus station at around 2 p.m. and jumped in front of a woman's car.

The man then hopped on the hood and starting pounding on the woman's windshield, the New York Daily News reported.

When the woman, identified as "Du," got out of the car, the man tackled her and started chewing on her face.

Photographs posted on Malaysia-Chronicle.com and other websites appeared to show the deranged bus driver straddling the helpless woman on the ground.

Witnesses said that they tried to stop the attack, but Dong had gone "crazy" and was able to overpower them.

Police eventually pulled the maniac off Du and cuffed him, the report said.

The woman was taken to a local hospital with tears to her lips and nose and would need plastic surgery to repair her face.

The police said the man drank heavily during lunch with friends before the attack. (ANI)
