A man has been arrested after being suspected of taking the leg of a pedestrian who was struck by an Amtrak train in California and eating it.

Well, did he have the limb or not? Were 'parts' missing from the scene?

"I'm not sure from where, but he walked this way and he was waving a person's leg. And he started chewing on it over there, he was biting it and he was hitting it against the wall and everything," said Jose Ibarra, a worker who saw the incident.

Just a big WTF right there.
Either really mental or really hungry. I'll go with the former. Or a  zombie!
I couldn't imagine how i would react if I saw someone walking with a leg in hand, let alone having a bite.

Is that illegal?

Is eating is considered desecration of a corpse?

Reminds me of when people on “bath salts” were eating the homeless.

Hello Sir: How would you like your leg tonight? SkilSaw or Train?

According to google, cannibalism isn't illegal in the US, it is just impossible to legally source the meat.

I think this guy found a cannibalism loophole.

Apparently people taste like pork. Or, so I've heard

What are the odds that someone inclined to eat a human leg would actually come across a leg lying around unattached to its former owner?

It's almost wrong to deny him the once in a lifetime opportunity.

Improper disposal of a corpse? Apparently just a misdemeanor though.

The other “white meat!”




Hate to drop the race card so early and all………..

Apparently the name for human flesh among some cannibal peoples translated to "long pork".

Probably desperately hungry.

Probably plenty of 'pickins' in trash cans around.
I saw a guy once as I sat at a light downtown, reach into a can, grab a soda cup, down the remainder, and then pick up a milk pint and polish off the bit left. Sad really.
But there was no leg..

More going on with this fella. I'm going to guess charges dropped and sent for help.

OK..OK.. Having pork loin for dinner and it's kind of the shape of a calf muscle...
