Karaoke_Machine A 27 year old broke in to a Uniondale, NY home and preceded to punch, kick and beat his victim ultimately using a karaoke machine and then bit his ear off. What a scene this must have been, a crazy most likely drug induced individual trying to beat a guy with a karaoke machine while the victim defended himself with a vacuum cleaner hose. You just can’t make this stuff up.

The 64-year-old Uniondale resident attempted to defend himself with a vacuum cleaner hose, said Nassau County police Officer Mary Verna. Doctors were unable to reattach the ear of the victim, but his injuries were not considered life-threatening.

The 27-year-old attacker punched and kicked his victim in the head and face before grabbing the karaoke machine and using it as a weapon, police said. He did not flee the scene of the violence Thursday but instead crouched in the hallway until police arrived.

“This guy just randomly picked this house,” said police Sgt. Anthony Repalone. “There were no proceeds and there’s no connection between the victim and the subject. Obviously, his behavior was such that there may have been some drug involvement.” (FOX News)
