When you get drunk and mouth off, be careful whom you give lip to.
A 30-year-old Alaskan woman was arrested after she bit off an Australian man's lower lip during a fight . The two were partying at a beer hall during Oktoberfest in September, according to News.co.au.
Raw video of the altercation posted to LiveLeak shows a man in lederhosen provoking the woman , who attacks him after he tries to shove something in her mouth. The woman, who appears in a yellow dress and a headband with plastic devil horns, punches the man several times, then bites him on the lower lip.
Witnesses can be heard screaming at the suspect to let go.
According to a HuffPost translation of German newspaper Abendzeitung, the woman bit off a piece of the man's lower lip and spat it on the floor . The man's lip was successfully reattached, and the woman was arrested for criminal assault.
Oktoberfest, the world's largest traditional Bavarian beer festival , draws an estimated 6 million visitors to Munich every year.
That's a lot of beer, and as German newspaper Suddeutsche.de reports, a lot of headaches for the medical personnel that are tasked with handling the anticipated cases of alcohol poisoning and other Oktoberfest-related mishaps that accompany the annual festival.
