…and a possible diagnosis for his conversion.

Naked man who tried to rip the flesh off another man on MacArthur Causeway identified

The man who viciously chewed away the face of another man on the MacArthur Causeway had a minor criminal record before Saturday’s attack.

The naked man who tried to eat another man’s face before he was shot dead by police was identified Monday.

Police sources confirmed that the attacker was 31-year-old Rudy Eugene. His name was first reported by WPLG-ABC?10.

…The macabre scene unfolded about 2 p.m. Saturday on the MacArthur Causeway’s off-ramp to Biscayne Boulevard just south of the Miami Herald building. A Road Ranger spotted the men and shouted on his loudspeaker for the naked attacker to back away.

One witness said he was riding his bicycle on the MacArthur when he saw a man tearing off pieces of the victim’s flesh with his mouth. After an officer approached, Larry Vega told WSVN-FOX7,

“The guy just stood, his head up like that, with pieces of flesh in his mouth. And he growled.”

…An emergency room doctor at Jackson Memorial Hospital said Eugene’s attack could have been induced by bath salts, a drug nicknamed after the bathroom product it resembles.

Police theorized earlier that it was “cocaine psychosis,” a drug-induced craze that bakes the body internally and often leads those it affects to strip naked to try to cool off.

So he was crazy wi’ either the heat or Jean Naté?

I’m looking a tad more critically at the things in my bathroom.
