And so it begins.
On Saturday, a grisly attack left a Miami, Florida man in critical condition after 75% of his face was gnawed off by a naked man who was shot dead by the police. The vicious incident (which the internet has blamed on an overdose of the new drug bath salts), combined with other shady, not-entirely-substantiated news reports of mysterious illnesses and folks running around Florida in HazMat suits,* has conspiracy theorists talking about the inevitable zombie apocalypse.
Adding fuel to the fire is the bizarre case of Wayne Carter, a New Jersey man allegedly cut out his intestines and then threw them at the police on Sunday.
The gruesome scene played out at Carter’s Hackensack, N.J., home, after Police were called to the scene based on reports that the 43-year old man was barricaded in his room with a knife and planning on harming himself, according to the local NBC station. The cops kicked in the door and ordered Carter to drop the knife. Ignoring the officers’ orders,*Carter allegedly began stabbing himself in the abdomen, neck and legs instead. Attempts to subdue him with pepper spray did nothing but seem to enrage him. That’s when officers say Carter began throwing pieces of his skin and entrails at the cops. Wisely, the police retreated.
The police called in the Bergen County SWAT team, who were able to eventually subdue Carter and get him to a hospital, where he remains in critical condition. No charges have been filed because of the unusual nature of the case, according to NBC New York. Hackensack police Lt. John Heinemann told reporters that he believes drugs or mental illness may have led to the horrific incident, but those details haven’t been confirmed. After everything else this week, Zombie apocalypse seems just as likely anyway.
