Man has lip reattached after woman bites it off during Oktoberfest fight

GERMAN: A woman has reportedly been arrested after she bit down on a man’s lip during a fight, ripping it off and forcing him to undergo reconstructive surgery.

The incident took place at the Bacchanalian German festival Oktoberfest in September and footage of the alleged assault has only now been posted to LiveLeak.

An altercation between the unnamed 30-year-old woman, understood to be from Alaska in the US, and the 23-year-old man from Australia plays out in front of horrified witnesses in the cramped bar area.

The woman, wearing devil’s horns and a yellow dress, reportedly latched onto the lederhosen-wearing man’s lip so hard that it ripped off.

She was later arrested for criminal assault, reported German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung.

The man, whose friends can be seen and heard trying to persuade the woman to get off him, apparently had emergency surgery to reattach the lip.

Oktoberfest is a 16-day annual music and beer event held in Munich, Bavaria, with more than 5million people attending each year.
