Woman Bites Off Part of Boyfriend's Tongue

ST. PAUL, Minn. (June 17) - A little too much passion, perhaps. A St. Paul
woman who became frightened Wednesday morning when her boyfriend squeezed her
too tightly while they kissed bit off part of his tongue, police said. "I guess
I bit down too hard," the woman told officers, explaining that she has been
victimized by men.

The woman, who is 43, was arrested for assault and could be charged Thursday in
Ramsey County, investigators said.

The man who was bitten, who is 47 and also from St. Paul, walked with the woman
from her home to a restaurant, where they called police around 3:10 a.m. He was
taken to Regions Hospital, where he was treated and released.

Officers went to the woman's home to look for the tongue, but they couldn't
find it.

The woman, who had been drinking with her boyfriend, told them she doesn't
remember what happened to the end of his tongue. Police estimate that it
measured about 1.5 inches.

She might have swallowed it, the woman said.
