Cannibal eats elderly man alive (well, part of him, at least)
 NEIGHBOURS of a pensioner savaged by a cackling cannibal told last night how he enjoyed a peaceful village life until the sudden horrific attack. Doug Morgan, 75, and his wife Valerie were getting ready for bed when the maniac dived through a lounge window left open because of the heatwave. A fierce tussle broke out as the intruder punched the OAP then bit him repeatedly. He chewed off Dougs thumb and ATE it, police said.Where's ye olde hunting 12 gauge shotgun when you need it? Oh, wait, this is England, and Europe. He is also thought to have ripped off the villagers left nipple with his teeth and tore chunks from his face and upper body. Cops who arrived at the scene in Lyonshall, near Hereford, had to drag the nut off blood-covered Doug, who had passed out with shock. They then used CS gas to knock him out. One officer was bitten and needed hospital treatment. A police source said it was like a scene from the horror film The Silence of the Lambs, in which cannibal killer Hannibal Lecter wears a gruesome mask. The source added: There was blood on the walls and this guy was just laughing like a maniac. Last night Doug was in a serious but stable condition in Bristols Frenchay hospital. Shocked Valerie, who locked herself in the bathroom after witnessing the attack, was at his bedside. She is also in her 70s. The psycho struck just after 1am on Monday. Police yesterday sent a team of officers to the village to reassure locals it had been a highly unusual and random attack.
The old chap lived a peaceful life with his wife, then someone jumped through his window and bit off his thumb. It doesnt bear thinking about. Doug and Valerie had only moved to their dream cottage less than two years ago after he had a triple heart bypass. Cops last night confirmed Doug had suffered serious bite wounds, had lost a thumb and chunks of flesh from his face and body. They do not think robbery was the attackers motive for entering the house. And it is understood he had no connection with his victim. The police source said: It was a bizarre and appalling attack on an old man. We have no idea why the attacker chose their house but there are mental health issues in this case. "Brilliant! Holmes, how do you do it?"/RB staple Mr Morgan put up a brave fight but was set about in a cannibalistic way. His thumb could not be sewn back on because the attacker had literally eaten it. Yummy! Doug and Valerie live in a half-timbered cottage that was a gatehouse to an estate. The maniac is thought to have gone on the rampage before the attack and the property showed signs of it last night. Smashed lounge and kitchen windows were boarded up. The windscreen of Dougs silver Renault Megane was broken and the garden shed was trashed. JAN Ometac, 27, a Slovak who has worked as a machinist in Hereford, has appeared in court charged with attempted murder. He was remanded to a secure mental unit. Strapped with an hockey mask?
