BOMBAY, India (AP) -- A Bombay construction worker made some comments about a colleague's wife -- then bit off the guy's ear and ate it.
Vinayak Kadam has been arrested for assault, police said Wednesday. Kadam had reportedly argued Sunday with fellow laborer Bhagwanrao Raut over Raut's wife. The next day, he called to Raut and on the pretext of wanting to whisper something important, he bit off his ear, Constable Jaidev Thackeray said.
"He said he ate the ear for fun," the policeman added.
Kadam took refuge in a tree when he heard police were looking for him. The fire brigade was called in to assist the police, who persuaded Kadam to leave his perch after six hours.
Kadam faces at least three months in prison.
