Zombie-like Attack in Florida

Police responded to a report of a naked man attacking another naked man and found one guy literally eating the other guy's face. The police ordered the man to stop. When he didn't, the officer shot the attacker who responded by growling at the officer and then resumed eating the guy's face. It took at least 4 shots to kill the attacker. The victim was then rushed to the hospital but his entire face including his nose and eyes had been eaten by the attacker.

Police believe the attacker had been using "bath salts", which they say is a dangerous new form of LSD.
MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Miami police are still tight-lipped about the man they shot and killed on the MacArthur Causeway Saturday afternoon, but new details back claims they had no choice: the naked man they shot was trying to chew the face off another naked man, and refused to obey police orders to stop his grisly meal, which one source now claims included his victim’s nose and eyeballs.

Surveillance video taken from security cameras at the nearby Miami Herald building show a police officer arrive on the scene, appear to be startled by the spectacle of two naked men lying on the street, and draw his service weapon. It appears that the officer shot one of the men, but it was difficult to tell in the video.

The bizarre shooting happened shortly after 2 p.m., when police responded to a 911 call about two naked men fighting on a bike path along the Causeway, which was packed with traffic on a busy holiday weekend.

Aguilar, who heads the local chapter of the Fraternal Order of Police, said he has spoken with the officer who responded. Aguilar said the officer saw what the man was doing, and ordered him to stop. He said the man growled at the officer, and then returned to his meal.

Aguilar said the man ate his victim’s nose and eyeballs.

The officer then used his service weapon and shot the man, Aguilar said, but the gunshot had no effect. Other sources confirmed that the man refused to obey, and continued his attack. Aguilar said the officer had no choice but to keep shooting until the attacker was dead.
 
It's about as correct to say it's a dangerous new form of LSD as to say it's a dangerous new form of breath mint. The only similarity is that they are both synthetic and made from chemicals.
 
And despite all I say about religion and superstition, there's a tiiiiny (but very real) part of me that believes this is the beginning of the zombie apocalypse.

'Superstition' would best avoid a discussion that has a clear example of how the "mind" is so easily changed and influenced by physical properties.

Why didn't the drugged out mans SOUL assert itself and prevent this from happening when the Brain was altered?
 
This case demonstrates the complete infeasibility of the zombie apocalypse.

"Hey Brad, what happened downtown?"

"Found a guy eating someone else's face. Warned him twice, then shot him in the head."

"Good work. Make sure you fill out the report. Is that a honey glaze?"



Because if the cops catch you eating face, they will just shoot you before the lawyers and paramedics can arrive. Problem solved.
 
I say.
What a grisly tale. I have heard of using bath salts, but does epson salt count.
Calgone. Takes you away.
To JAIL. If used improperly. Who would have thought....

If used improperly... what are you talking about?! Did they fail to follow the directions on the label?
This is one of those things that happens when someone zonks their brain with heavy chemicals. He didn't use them improperly- he used them.
 
Or to the graveyard.
Wonder how Hanabil Lector feels today

Maybe he didn't follow the directions of the label. These substances are legal in many states.
 
It's not LSD.

What is it?
According to the O.P. and news articles, it's LSD. But hey, I don't really know.

You could have saved time by saying, "It's not LSD. It is ___________"

One officer told Miami television station WSVN the attacker had likely taken a new potent form of LSD. An emergency room doctor theorized bath salts, a drug with amphetamine-like chemicals nicknamed after the product it resembles, may have induced the violent behavior, reported NBCMiami.com.

The active ingredient in so-called "bath salts" is a chemical called mephedrone.

If it were LSD, it wouldn't be (quasi-)legal to sell it. That's where the name "bath salts" comes from - it's a chemical that is legal to possess, and also legal to sell, just not for human consumption. So they label it "bath salts."

According to the O.P. and news articles, it's LSD.

The article seems to be quoting someone who is talking out of his ass (LSD doesn't produce any of the effects he attributes to the substance - maybe he's confusing it with PCP?). Looks like the article didn't fact-check that thoroughly - or at all - and then the OP just repeated that uncritically.


Note that your link there is clear about bath salts and LSD being different things. Still has a lot of nonsense, though (stuff about LSD causing your "organs to burn up inside your body" for example). It's kind of amazing how ignorant and counter-factual reporting related to recreational drugs is, even coming from major news organizations.
 
That was definitely not LSD, in fact one report put it as being a methedrone derivative.

What is more likely is that reporters have taken to terming "a hallucinogenic substance" LSD, thereby spreading misinformation.

Citing an “imminent threat to public safety,” the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) made illegal the possession and sale of three of the chemicals commonly used to make "bath salts" -- the synthetic stimulants mephedrone, MDPV, and methylone. The ban, issued in October 2011, is effective for at least a year. During that time, the agency will decide whether a permanent ban is warranted.

I guess if there is more "Walking Dead" episodes then it will make damn sure it's not overturned.

Ok, that's just weird. Selling a drug as a drug, but labeling it as something else, knowing it will be used as a drug.
Yes, I can see that happening- it's just weird.

Essentially, we have News Misreporting things- just 'cause. I can think of other threads on the forum where this could raise some Cain...

Well, Spidergoat and R1D2, my apologies: It seems they may well have failed to follow the directions on the label.

But it also appears the directions on the label were never intended to be followed...
 
No apologies needed, bath salts are intended during a bath. But I wonder if epsom salt is in the "category" because supposedly you can use in your bath an take it as a laxative. Florida is restricting. Some bath salts from being sold, but you are able to get them online. Maybe all bath salts should have some epsom salt in it....
 
If I was a Florida cop, and I shot 2 Hispanic men in cold blood, and nobody was watching (as the camera was unclear), then I could blow one of the victims face off, and make the other look like he was eating the first. I could fake the whole thing, like Zimmerman.
I could shoot all the Independent and Democrat voters in the voter poll lines, and make them look like they were zombies, and the Republican voters in line would help me or at least, applaud.
Conspiracy and the appearance of it, is a lack of clarity in motive and purpose. These are the chaotic effects of incompetent Republican Florida leadership.

Calgone, take me away.

Blowing the face off would create powder burns easily identifiable in the autopsy.

Try using a spoon, instead.
