Zombie?
 

It was a scene as creepy as a Hannibal Lecter movie.

One man was shot to death by Miami police, and another man is fighting for his life after he was attacked, and his face allegedly half eaten, by a naked man on the MacArthur Causeway off ramp Saturday, police said.

The horror began about 2 p.m. when a series of gunshots were heard on the ramp, which is along NE 13th Street, just south of The Miami Herald building.

According to police sources, a road ranger saw a naked man chewing on another man’s face and shouted on his loud speaker for him to back away.Meanwhile, a woman also saw the incident and flagged down a police officer who was in the area.

The officer, who has not been identified, approached and, seeing what was happening, also ordered the naked man to back away. When he continued the assault, the officer shot him, police sources said. The attacker failed to stop after being shot, forcing the officer to continue firing. Witnesses said they heard at least a half dozen shots.

Miami police were on the scene, which was just south of The Miami Herald building on Biscayne Boulevard. The naked man who was killed lay face down on the pedestrian walkway just below the newspaper’s two-story parking garage. Police have requested The Herald’s video surveillance tapes.

The other man was transported to the hospital with critical injuries, according to police. Their identities were not released.

The incident, which came as crowds descended upon South Beach for the annual Urban Beach Week hip-hop festival, snarled traffic on the causeway for several hours.

In a text message, Javier Ortiz, spokesman for Miami police’s Fraternal Order of Police, said the officer who fired the fatal shots was “a hero.”

“Based on the information provided, our Miami police officer is a hero and saved a life,’’ he said.

Sergeant Altarr Williams, supervisor of Miami police’s Homicide Unit, said a man doesn’t have to be armed to be dangerous.

“There are other ways to injure people,’’ Williams said. “Some people know martial arts, others are very strong and can kill you with their hands.’’

Investigators believe the victim may have been homeless and laying down when the crazed man pounced.

Police theorize the attacker might have been suffering from "cocaine psychosis," a drug-induced craze that bakes the body internally and often leads the affected to strip naked to try and cool off.

This is how it starts, folks. Load up and hunker down.

Whoa. That's pretty freaky.

PCP will f*ck you up.

It's one thing to cut of someone's face and stick it on your own, but to actually eat it?? WHAT?!

wow! this is totally WTF? stuff right here

What took them so long to give him the final shot?

I heard the guy was tweaked on bath salts.

Yeah, and I heard that both guys were naked.

That seems to be the popular rumor, and in that same vein:

A New Jersey man allegedly cut out his entrails in front of police and then threw bits of his flesh and intestines at them.

The gruesome scene played out at a home in Hackensack, N.J., where 43-year-old Wayne Carter allegedly barricaded himself in on Sunday, NBC New York reported.

Officers got a call that morning when a witness said Carter was threatening to harm himself with a knife. Two cops responded, kicked in the door and found Carter in the corner, the station reported.

Carter allegedly ignored officers' orders to put down the knife, and instead began stabbing himself in the abdomen, neck and legs.

An attempt to pepper spray the bleeding man had no effect, the Associated Press reported.

That's when Carter -- disemboweled but responsive -- reportedly threw bits of his skin and intestines at the officers.

They decided to retreat and call in the Bergen County SWAT team, Hackensack police Lt. John Heinemann told reporters. The team was able to subdue Carter and get him to a hospital, where he remained in critical condition on Monday.

Heinemann said he believes that drugs or mental illness may have led to the horrific incident, but those details haven't been confirmed.

No charges have yet been filed due to the unusual nature of the incident.

Gives "going to pieces" a new meaning.

The f*ck is this, Story of Ricky?

and also why the guy was naked?

One of the effects of some of the bath salts is that it makes you feel really hot.

My other theory is rabies. Symptoms of rabies in humans are hallucinating, aggression, agitation, and neurologic symptoms that would make you feel hot and itchy.

There have been some rumors of a mutated version of the rabies virus that has an airborn transmission showing up in Africa. Think about that for a moment. Hoards of rabid humans transmitting the virus through bites and others being infected just like you'd catch the flu.

Scary sh!t

At night, we played poker with
Scott the guard, Alias and Steve
the researcher.

Steve was very lucky, but I
think he was cheating.
What a scumbag.

Today, a high ranking researcher
asked me to take care of a new
monster.
It looks like a gorilla without
any skin. They told me to feed
them live food. When I threw in
a pig, they were playing with
it... tearing off the pig's legs
and pulling out the guts before
they actually ate it.


May 11th 2012

Around 5 o'clock this morning,
Scott came in and woke me up
suddenly. He was wearing a
protective suit that looks like
a space suit. He told me to put
one on as well.
I heard there was an accident in
the basement lab.
It's no wonder, those researchers
never rest, even at night.


May 12th 2012

I've been wearing this annoying
space suit since yesterday, my
skin grows musty and feels very
itchy.
By way of revenge, I didn't feed
those dogs today.
Now I feel better.


May 13th 2012

I went to the medical room
because my back is all swollen
and feels itchy.
They put a big bandage on my
back and the doctor told me I
did not need to wear the space
suit any more.
I guess I can sleep well tonight.


May 14th 2012

When I woke up this morning, I
found another blister on my foot.
It was annoying and I ended up
dragging my foot as I went to
the dog's pen. They have been
quiet since morning, which is
very unusual. I found that some
of them had escaped.
I'll be in real trouble if the
higher-ups find out.


May 15th 2012

Even though I didn't feel well,
I decided to go see Nancy.
It's my first day off in a long
time but I was stopped by the
guard on the way out.
They say the company has ordered
that no one leave the grounds.
I can't even make a phone call.
What kind of joke is this?!


May 16th 2012

I heard a researcher who tried
to escape from this mansion was
shot last night.
My entire body feels burning and
itchy at night.
When I was scratching the
swelling on my arms, a lump of
rotten flesh dropped off.
What the hell is happening to me?


May 19, 2012

Fever gone but itchy.
Hungry and eat doggy food.
Itchy Itchy Scott came.
Ugly face so killed him.
Tasty.

4.

Itchy.
Tasty.

Whoa. That's scary.

Turo, what's your source on this?

Oops! Sorry, how can I forget.

Between this and the insect AIDS it might be a nice time to book it for the moon.

LOL I knew that was from Resident Evil. I think I've been playing the games too much recently.

Ah, thanks, Turo. I wasn't sure if that was a real story or something else.

Yes, all of this stuff is pretty messed up, but that's what drugs will do to you. Remember, drugs are bad, mmmkay.
