A 41-year-old Wheatley man has been arrested after a bizarre home-invasion style attack.
At about 8pm last night a man forced his way into a neighbour's home and got into a physical struggle.
At one point during the scuffle, the attacker bit the homeowner's finger.
The homeowner's wife ran to another neighbour's home for help and two other men were able to restrain the attacker by locking him in a closet.
Both males involved in the fight were taken to hospital in Chatham for treatment.
Chatham Kent police have charged the suspect with break and enter, and assault.
