The unnamed 40-year-old was missing the tip of his nose when police in Juneau answered a call about a possible assault about 2 a.m. Tuesday, the Anchorage Daily News reported.

"There was lots of blood and he was holding towels to his face," Brown-Mills said. Police say they suspect alcohol was involved in the assault. A search of the park found the missing part of the nose, which was rushed to a local hospital where doctors worked to reattach it. It was uncertain if the surgery was successful, the Daily News said.
