| 1278537 | 2012-05-30 15:45:00 | Naked Man Shot Multiple Times - Caught Eating Face Of Another Man Rudy Eugene, 31, of North Miami Beach was shot multiple times during the grisly assault on the Downtown exit ramp of the busy MacArthur Causeway. An eyewitness who was riding his bike on the causeway Saturday afternoon said he flagged down a police officer after coming across Eugene, stark naked, chewing another man's face. "The guy was, like, tearing him to pieces with his mouth, so I told him, 'Get off!'" Larry Vega told WSVN. "The guy just kept eating the other guy away, like, ripping his skin." But Vega said when the police officer yelled at Eugene to back away, the naked man merely raised his head "with pieces of flesh in his mouth," growled, and began chewing and swallowing again. The officer reportedly then shot Eugene once, but Eugene still continued to attack the man's face, prompting the officer to shoot multiple times until he was dead. The shooting and its aftermath were captured on surveillance video from the Miami Herald's parking garage, but police are still trying to piece together details and are asking witnesses to come forward. The identity of Eugene's victim, believed to be a homeless man, has not been released. He is reportedly in critical condition at Jackson Memorial Hospital. [Update, 7 p.m.: the victim has been identified as Ronald Poppo, 65.] "Seventy-five to 80 percent of his face was missing," Armando Aguilar of the Miami Fraternal Order of Police Aguilar told NBC Miami. "He was actually swallowing pieces of the man's face." Surveillance video shows the attack went on for 18 minutes before help arrived. Police say Eugene may have been suffering from a drug-induced psychosis which causes the body to heat up, prompting some users to remove their clothes in an effort to cool down, the Herald reported. Aguilar says authorities have seen several such cases of delirium in which people have taken off their clothes, seemingly displayed superhuman strength, and have used their jaws as weapons. One such assault allegedly occurred after the Ultra Music Festival in March when a naked reveler Evan Oberfelder attacked a good samaritan and first responders after being hit by a taxi. 14 police officers were treated for blood exposure or injuries after managing to subdue Oberfelder. “We have seen, already, three or four cases that are exactly like this where some people have admitted taking LSD and it’s no different than cocaine psychosis,” Aguilar told CBS. One emergency room doctor suspects an LSD-like substance called bath salts is behind Eugene's attack, citing several cases of drug-induced mania in Miami in recent months. “It’s dangerous for the police," Dr. Paul Adams told CBSMiami. “It’s dangerous for the fire fighters. It’s dangers for the hospital workers taking care of them because they come in, they have to be restrained both chemically and physically and you’re asking for someone to get hurt.” "The guy, he was like a zombie, blood dripping, it was intense," The New York Daily News quotes Vega as saying. "The closest thing I've seen to it? 'The Walking Dead'." |

| 1278540 | 2012-05-30 23:20:00 | Lead or silver bullets? I really don't know what I'm saying here - I saw a movie trailer for something like that 50+ years ago, and they had to use silver. But that might be vampires. Or Dracula. Or Sasquatch. I dunnow for sure. I think the movie was in black and white. And it was silent. With captions. |
