911 Calls in Face-Chewing Assault Released

Ronald Poppo

The victim of Saturday’s face-chewing attack has been identified as Ronaldo Poppo, a homeless man that lived under the causeway where he was found naked and being eaten alive by another nude man, Rudy Eugene. According to Sgt. Armando Aguillar, Eugene had eaten his face “down to his goatee.” The case has been described as extremely bloody, but also sad. Eugene was killed by police during the attack and no motive established in the case, except possible drug-induced psychosis.
