A drunken fight between two Salt Lake City siblings turned ugly on Friday when one of them allegedly bit the other’s eye off.
The Unified Police Department says 26-year-old Ashleigh Mason was intoxicated when she and her sister got into a fight while in a car, according to ABC affiliate KTVX.
Mason allegedly grabbed her sister’s hair, pulled her in, and bit her left eye, causing part of the eye to be ripped out.
Mason then fled about a block and hid in a yard, according to police, adding the suspect was “extremely intoxicated” and screaming loud enough for neighbors to hear when they found her.
Mason reportedly had two bottles of vodka and a can of White Claw.
Paramedics tells KTVX the sister’s eye will need to be worked on by a plastic surgeon. Police believe the tear duct was ripped out but couldn’t tell because of the blood.
Mason was arrested on charges of aggravated assault, disorderly conduct, and intoxication.
