Police say a woman had her toe bitten off at a New Year's Eve party in Boston.

Officers responded to a city hospital at about 5 a.m. Wednesday for a report of an apparent assault in which the victim's little toe on her left foot was bitten off.

The victim told police she made a sexual advance to another woman at the party in the city's Dorchester neighborhood at about 3 a.m., which upset the other woman's boyfriend and led to a fight.

Police tell The Boston Globe the party's host then asked the victim to leave, which led to another fight outside in which the host allegedly bit off the guest's toe.

The entire episode remains under investigation and no names were released.
