MÜNSTER, Germany, Jan. 18 A drunk man in Munster, Germany, was bitten in the face by a dog after he began chowing down on food from the animal's dish.
The man dropped to his hands and knees and started eating from the food dish of his friend's dog in an attempt to exert male dominance, Der Spiegel reported Thursday.
The dog reportedly watched as the intoxicated man invaded his territory and pounced on his face when he crossed the line.
The man was seriously injured and rushed to the hospital.
"I have no information about any missing body parts. But you can imagine the damage. The face is a very sensitive part of the body" police spokesman Klaus Laackman said.
Police reportedly tried to maintain what privacy was left for the man by not sharing excessive amounts of information Wednesday.
