A woman bit off her ex-boyfriend's lower lip as they were kissing in bed, likely disfiguring him permanently, authorities said.
The man and the woman had kissed several times Monday night when, without provocation, she bit off his lip and spat it out, he told King County sheriff's deputies.
Laura Roberta Cutler, 44, was charged Wednesday with second-degree domestic-violence assault and ordered held on $75,000 (€51,000) bail.
Deputies were called to the house in White Center, south of Seattle, and found Thomas J. Brummel, 49, on the front porch, much of his lower lip missing and his face and neck covered in blood, King County sheriff's Detective Scott Tompkins wrote in a probable cause affidavit.
Deputies reported finding the man's lip on the bedroom floor, covered with cat hair. Doctors at Highline Hospital were unable to reattach the lip and said the man will likely be permanently disfigured.
Brummel and Cutler live at the house with two other renters, all of whom are recovering from drug addiction and agreed to share a "clean and sober" home. Tompkins wrote that Cutler was drunk when detectives arrived, and "her rage was evident and uncontrolled."
