Colin Czech, 31, has been accused of murder after he got into a fight and then chewed off portions of the victim’s face at a bus stop as police arrived on the scene.
How it Started
The incident happened about 4.45am on Sunday. Police received a report of two men fighting in front of a business in the 1100 block.
But when officers found the two men, one of them was found unresponsive and bleeding from his head.
Police at the Scene
Officers also found ‘flesh-eating’ Czech kneeling on the ground next to the victim with ‘biological matter in his hair, mouth, and on his clothing, per KLAS, citing documents.
What Czech Told Police
He reportedly told officers that the victim had attacked him, and that he was homeless, after cops had spotted him eating the ear and an eyeball of the other man.
Paramedics rushed the severely injured victim, who is later identified as Kenneth Brown, to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead.
The deceased had a large cut to part of his head and he was missing an eye and ear.
Meanwhile, Czech had reportedly been falling ‘in and out of consciousness’ while he was in police custody, as he told officers he had been awake for ‘five days straight’ because ‘something was possessing him’.
The killer also told detectives he used his teeth to hurt the victim, adding ‘he used his teeth to eat [the man’s] eyeballs and ears,’ documents revealed.
Czech was arrested on a charge of open murder and was booked into the Clark County Detention Center in absentia.
He was set to make an appearance in court on Monday afternoon, but Justice of the Peace Rebecca Saxe said Czech was not transported to the hearing because he had been admitted into hospital.
