Hall and Oates got into a bloody confrontation that ended with Hall getting bit in the face and Oates landing in jail, according to police.

-snip-

"It was apparent [Hall] had been assaulted as he had a significant injury above his left eye," according to a police report. "There was a significant cut to his left eyebrow region in the shape of a bite."

The arresting officer reported that "a chunk of [Hall's] skin had almost been completely bit off."

When police arrived at the scene, Oates was still there and needed to be shot with a Taser to be subdued.

Oates was charged with felony assault and resisting arrest. In his mug shot, taken soon after his arrest, there still appears to be blood covering his lips. It was unknown if he had already obtained a lawyer.

Hall was taken to a hospital for treatment.

Did everyone catch that it is NOT THE Hall and Oates? (What the misleading headline doesn’t tell you.)

I applied NBC's "Zimmerman" editing technique to the story. Much more interesting this way, huh?

Ya mean they were a tribute band, like these Rolling Stones?

Instead of bite me in the name of Mike Tyson, it is in the name of Roger Oates ! LMFAO !

Things would have really gotten ugly if Hall had turned around with a mouthful of Oates.
