19-year-old Florida College Student Kills Two People, Then Tries to Eat Their Faces

Austin Harrouff, a 19-year-old Florida State University student is accused of killing 53-year-old Michelle Mishcon and 59-year-old John Stevens at a home in Tequesta in Martin County



A 19-year-old Florida State University student with no criminal record was found biting a dead man's face in South Florida on Monday at the scene of a deadly stabbing, authorities said.



Martin County Sheriff William Snyder told reporters that Austin Harrouff may have been on hallucinogenic drugs when he attacked Michelle Mishcon, 53, and John Stevens III, 59, at their Tequesta, Florida, home.



Police pronounced Stevens dead at the scene, and later found Mishcon's body inside the couple's garage. She is the daughter of the former mayor of North Miami Beach.



Martin County Sheriff’s Office officials said a female deputy arrived and found Harrouff on top of Stevens attempting to eat his face.



"When she got there she realized that the offender was actually biting the victim in the face and causing what turned out to be some substantial trauma to his face from bite marks," Sheriff William Snyder said.



Deputies were initially unsuccessful in getting Harrouff off of the victim with a stun gun and K-9 dog, officials said. Eventually, four deputies were able to pry him off and arrest him.
