LAS VEGAS, NV – Authorities in Las Vegas are investigating a gruesome incident where a victim was found missing an eye and an ear after a violent attack near the Las Vegas Strip.
The incident unfolded early on a Sunday morning, when police received a 911 call reporting a fight in a 7-Eleven parking lot. The caller described a man attacking a customer and behaving erratically, prompting officers to respond to the scene.
Upon arrival, officers found a man, identified as Colin Czech, kneeling next to the victim with blood and biological matter on his face and hands. Despite questioning from the authorities, Czech remained unresponsive.
The victim, known only as Kenneth, was rushed to a trauma center but was pronounced dead shortly after. Czech, who claimed to have been attacked by the victim, displayed signs of being in distress and was also taken to the hospital.
During questioning, Czech made disturbing claims about fighting a “shape-shifter” and hearing voices instructing him to harm the victim. He confessed to using his teeth to attack the victim and consuming his eyeball and ear, citing a “higher power” guiding him.
An investigation revealed that the victim’s body was missing a left eye and ear, with evidence of a violent impact to the head. Czech was subsequently arrested on murder charges and booked into the Clark County Detention Center.
The motive behind the brutal attack remains unclear as authorities continue to gather evidence and conduct interviews. The community is left in shock by the horrifying nature of the incident, with many expressing concerns about mental health and substance abuse issues in the area.
As the investigation unfolds, authorities are urging anyone with information on the case to come forward and assist in bringing justice to the victim and his family. The tragic event serves as a reminder of the importance of addressing mental health challenges and ensuring access to proper resources for those in need.
