Damsels are quite aggressive and if it was in the tank first it is quite possible. However, if it were me I would take a flashlight and cover it with several layers of red saran wrap...then use that to veiw your tank after the lights have been out for an hour or so. I would rule out a fish eating hitchhiker before I blamed the other fish.

It isn't uncommon to aquire nasty little predatory critters from the LFS, and they don't even charge you for them!!! You might have to check the tank with the red light several days before finding anything if there is something in there.
