Once inside the apartment, Morin reportedly found employment documents related to a strip club that sparked a fight leading Morin to allegedly choke his ex-girlfriend before letting her go, according to NEWS4SA. When she tried to escape, he reportedly grabbed her and bit her nose, ripping part of it off, the outlet reported.
Police said that Morin fled the scene, leaving the injured woman behind, according to NEWS4SA.
Authorities took the woman to the hospital for treatment and referral to a plastic surgeon, the outlet reported.
One online commenter made a tongue in cheek post lampooning the incident, stating, “When leaving a relationship, don’t tell the former significant other to ‘bite me’. That choice of words may leave a bad taste in his/her mouth.”
Another took a more serious tone, criticizing the alleged assailant by noting the strip joint application “must have been for a server or bartender job, but this idiots’ two braincells couldn’t figure that out. Strippers don’t fill out applications, dumbass.”
Morin is currently being held at Bexar County Jail on $75,000 bail.
