Nothing changes when nothing changes.
Jesus h. Christ.!
I hope that is bruising and not necrotic tissue.
By the looks of the officers nose i would guess there migh be some bath salts somewhere in this story.

Both very bad drugs.

No rainbow. It's raining skulls.
Meth or bathsalts, without a reagent it's almost impossible to tell these days.

Good grief! "Fightbites" are the worse in presenting infections.
That's going to require some plastic surgery, a shit ton of antibiotics to prevent severe infection, and just to be safe HIV every 6 months for a couple of years.
If that's the perp's current mugshot, he's so very lucky the officer didn't bite him back - I hated dealing with this kind of stuff when working on the Ambulance, as it usually would happen to the cops who were some of the kindest and gentle people you'd ever meet - real gentle giants who just wanted to make their cities/towns a safer place for everyone - and wouldn't dream of physically retaliating to the perpetrator(s) in any way for receiving/enduring such a painful and serious injury.
Some others I knew, would have beaten the shit out of this man just for resisting, let alone inflicting such a serious injury to either themselves, or their patrol partners.
At the time the photo was taken, it's both initial bruising and a lot of internal blood flow/bleeding caused by the "crushing" aspect of the bite; the nose has thousands of minute/tiny blood vessels, and they're trying to release blood from the area that was crushed, but the blood has no way to escape except from the vessels directly around where the skin's been broken by the where the teeth cut the flesh in the bite.
The bruising will get much worse during the 72 hours after the injury, but necrosis can start setting in withing just hours - as most of us know, the human bite is one of the most infectious due to myriad nasty bacteria within our mouths, but the worst bacteria with regards to necrosis/gangrene is that which is on the part of the teeth closest to (and/or just above and below) the gum line.
My heart goes out to this officer, there's no telling at this point if he'll need reconstructive surgery, or just a good plastic surgeon to do tiny sutures to prevent excessive scarring, plus the fear of blood born illnesses he'll have to deal with for a year or two to know he's safe from any transmission.
