According to a police report from the Martin County Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to a battery call in Stuart. When they arrived to the American Legion parking lot, an “intoxicated” man covered in blood approached officers, saying he’d been beaten up by a homeless man named Louis Piselli.

The victim, John O’Rourke, reported that he and Piselli had been sitting in his van nearby in the parking lot of Lowes. The two men had only known each other a short time, having met at the Martin County Fairgrounds for a Thanksgiving dinner served by a church group, he said.

While sitting in the car, O’Rourke told officers that Piselli asked him if he had any vodka. The victim replied that he had a half a pint and handed him the bottle, which Piselli began to “chug,” read the report.

O’Rourke told Piselli he was “upset” that he was drinking all his booze, and that’s when the situation escalated. Piselli then allegedly grabbed the man by his hair, slammed his head against the steering wheel and dragged him out of the van to beat him some more, biting his right ear in the process

I like the added touch to the story by the perpetrator that he “cut himself shaving”. Without a shred of evidence such as a nick or cut on his face.
