Chicago police have a man in custody suspected of attacking two other men, including biting one, at Lollapalooza 2014.

South Loop resident Sergio Vicenteno, 33, allegedly bit 29-year-old Ben Lenet during a performance by Arctic Monkeys. Lenet posted photos of his injuries online, which showed the biting broke skin, and told RedEye after the attack his assailant walked away after being kicked squarely in the face and receiving “10-15 blows to the head." Lenet compared it to a zombie attack.

"It really only occurred to me later, the amount of beating he sustained was pretty massive. For him to be able to walk around is astounding," Lenet told RedEye. "The cops said later they usually don’t hear that unless the person is on PCP or bath salts," he added.

Vicenteno met with 2nd District detectives Wednesday and was arrested shortly after. He faces two counts of aggravated battery at a public venue.
