Police: Ariz. Woman Stabs Date, Drinks His Blood
(CBS) TEMPE, Ariz. A woman tied up a man during sex, slashed him with a knife and then told him she likes to drink blood, police in Tempe, Ariz. said.
Tiffany Sutton, 23, was arrested on suspicion of aggravated assault Tuesday night in a Tempe home, where she and Robert McDaniel were living, police said.
McDaniel told police he had consented to being tied up but became scared when Sutton attacked him with a knife, officers said.
Court paperwork shows Sutton used multiple knives to stab McDaniel seven times in the torso and cut him twice.
She cut his inner leg and when he screamed, "What are you doing?" she responded that she liked to drink blood, officers said.
McDaniel eventually freed himself and ran away, but Sutton chased him with a pickax, police said.
McDaniel was taken in an ambulance to a local hospital, where he was treated for injuries.
Before he was taken away, he identified Sutton as his attacker, court paperwork shows.
Sutton told police she and McDaniel were living together, but McDaniel said Sutton was a transient who'd only been staying at his place for a couple days, said Tempe Sgt. Mike Horn.
Both admitted to authorities that they had consumed alcohol and drugs prior to the attack, Horn said.
McDaniel was passed out when police were called, and Sutton initially acted like she was the victim, Horn said.
Sutton later told police the entire encounter was consensual.
Police said they had a warrant for McDaniel's arrest on an assault charge.
