AFTER MAN KILLED BY TRAIN, COPS ARREST ANOTHER MAN FOR EATING HIS DISMEMBERED LEG
I’ve never quite understood the motivation driving cannibalism, though I’m sure that motivation would be widely and variously described by various…. cannibals. It’s common pulp knowledge that burning human flesh smells disturbingly like fried pork, even bacon. Yet that doesn’t do much to allay my general instant and thorough disgust at the idea of eating another human’s flesh. So that being said, I’m even more at a loss to understand how someone got arrested for chewing on a dead man’s (not attached) leg after he was killed by a passing train. And no, this isn’t an onion piece, a metaphor or a joke.

AFTER ACCIDENT, CONSTRUCTION WORKERS SAW MODERN-DAY CANNIBAL EATING LEG
On Friday of last week, some poor soul was hit and killed in Wasco, California at an Amtrak station. I can only imagine how disturbing that must have been for the still living. When a train hits a human, it tends to be thorough and thoroughly messy. But then it go way, way more disturbing. Construction workers on a job near the scene then spotted a man nearby walking down the street waving the train-detached leg of the deceased. But as upsetting as that sight must have been, they also saw him chewing on it. As in, he was eating the recently deceased’s leg.

POLICE ARRESTED MAN WHO STILL HAD LEG IN HAND, FACES MULTIPLE CHARGES
One of the witnesses to the macabre, disgusting example of modern-day cannibalism was Jose Ibarra. He said, “He was biting it and he was hitting it against the wall and everything. On the leg, the skin was hanging. You could see the bone.” Even worse? There’s video, though strategically the train-detached leg is blurred out. But if you watch it you’ll get the idea. And a strong case of the heaves, to boot. Police responding at the scene found the man, still carrying the leg-as-snack, and arrested him. He faces charges of removing evidence from the scene of an accident. I don’t know what anti-cannibalism laws in California may also apply.
Oh, and the not fine not young cannibal also has multiple outstanding warrants. I wonder if he’ll reminisce eating bacon in prison?
