Brain food

LONDON police have discovered a man allegedly frying a human brain for a meal, according to a British tabloid newspaper.
Britain’s The Sun newspaper reported the man killed his victim in a savage attack before dismembering the body and cooking parts of it on a stove.
Police were summoned to the “blood spattered apartment” by neighbours calling about a “terrible attack”. The victim was identified as Brian Cherry, a 45-year-old bachelor tenant of the flat.
The suspect, Peter Bryan, 34, whose address was given as a psychiatric ward in an east London hospital, appeared in court on a charge of murder.
Only hours earlier Bryan had reportedly had been released from the mental home. The victim, was also believed to have received psychiatric treatment.
One neighbour said: “His mother died a few weeks ago. Brian didn’t work. He lived on his own.”
A number of weapons, believed to include knives, were allegedly found at the flat and taken away for forensic testing.
While officially not commenting on the claims of cannibalism, senior police have reportedly not ruled it out as a motive.
In court, Bryan spoke only to confirm his name and address, and there was no application for bail.
His next court appearance is set for February 26.
