LaSalle Waterfront Park, home of drunk cannibals? it would seem so, as of last Friday, anyway.
Two men spent the afternoon at a Park Pavilion, consuming alcohol and enjoying the pleasant weather, and possibly discussing the pair's high frequency arrest records. All went well until both men had a bit too much of their 'liquid courage', beginning to argue until it escalated to... cannibalism.
Howard Caldecott, whose fingertip was bitten off, reported to the police states he was not sure how the argument escalated so rapidly, nor what he was doing just before the attack. All he recalls is that the man he had been drinking with hopped on his bicycle, his only form of transportation, and sped off, leaving Caldecott with only Nine and three-quarters fingers... and a story he can hardly remember.
Police have not yet released the name of the other man involved in the incident, but expect and 'expedient arrest.'
