   A male stripper from Tampa who believed his partner was a   
   "cannibal" stabbed him in both eyes with a pen then shoved a   
   piece of wood down his throat during a fight at a home in Key   
   West, authorities said.   
      
   Justin Calhoun, 24, was arrested late Monday on an attempted   
   second-degree murder charge in the attack on 67-year-old Mark   
   Brann, according to a Key West police arrest report.   
      
   According to the report, Calhoun said he and Brann had been in a   
   sexual relationship and he often stayed at Brann's home.   
      
   Calhoun said he and Brann got into an argument because he   
   believed Brann to be a "cannibal," the report said. Calhoun said   
   when he questioned Brann about being a cannibal, it made Brann   
   angry and he picked up a gun, the report said.   
      
   Calhoun said he grabbed Brann's wrist and the two started   
   struggling before the gun went off, the report said. No one was   
   injured but Calhoun said he was able to take the gun away and   
   tried to shoot Brann but the gun jammed, the report said.   
      
   At that point, Calhoun said he grabbed a pen and stabbed Brann   
   in both eyes with it, the report said. As Brann was laying on   
   the floor yelling for help, Calhoun said he grabbed a piece of   
   wood from a dresser that was broken during the fight and stuffed   
   it into Brann's mouth to silence him, the report said.   
      
   Calhoun said he stood up and stomped the piece of wood further   
   into Brann's mouth, the report said. He said he then grabbed a   
   drawer from the broken dresser and hit Brann with it in his head   
   and throat, the report said.   
      
   Calhoun told officers that Brann's roommate tried to get into   
   the room but Calhoun locked the door then jumped out of the   
   bedroom window while nude, according to the report.   
      
   Police responded to the home and set up a perimeter before they   
   were able to take Calhoun into custody. He said he avoided Key   
   West Police for several hours by jumping fences and climbing on   
   roof tops, the report said.   
      
   Brann was flown to Jackson Memorial Hospital's Ryder Trauma   
   Center in critical condition and was on a breathing machine, the   
   report said.   
      
   Calhoun was booked into jail where he was being held without   
   bond Tuesday. Jail records listed his occupation as a stripper   
   in Tampa. Attorney information wasn't immediately available.
