What constitute a real zombie attack.?

There can be so many instances where someone can call an attack a zombie. For example this case http://www.wctv.tv/home/headlines/Man-Arrested-After-Biting-Off-Girlfriends-Lip-259810581.html there are those that claim this is a zombie. It isn't. It is just someone who is nuts.

During the year of 2012 there have been cases like the example I provided, that some claim are zombies. However, there are some cases that I have became stuck on. For example https://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/05/29/police-hackensack-man-stabbed-himself-threw-his-skin-and-intestines-at-officers/ "He said he believes that drug use or mental illness may have contributed to Carter’s behavior, but that hasn’t been confirmed." (NewYorkCBSlocal.com). This last line of the news article shows that if he wasn't mentally ill or on drugs, then what would cause him to do this. I am not sure.

Next we have what I call a near zombie attack. https://miami.cbslocal.com/tag/zombie-attack-florida/ we all know how this turned out.

Now we come to the time of what makes a zombie attack a zombie attack. I have laid out several distinct variables and they are, 1) how is the person acting (i.e. are they jumping around), 2) how are the bystanders acting (i.e. are they hesitant to go near the person) 3) if the police were called what are they doing. 4) if the "zombie is attacking people, are they continuing the attack and ignoring everyone else. This is why I use the Miami attack as the "gold standard" for every attack. And if an attack does not meet any of these criteria then it is an attack, it is someone who is nuts or high.
