A California man has been arrested for stealing a human leg from a fatal train accident — and eating it.
The accident and subsequent cannibalism took place at the Amtrak station in Wasco on Friday.
1st Responder Media, who posted a video of the cannibalism, identified the suspect as Resendo Tellez, 27.

“Deputies learned that 27-year old Resendo Tellez removed evidence from the accident scene. Tellez was located and arrested without incident for multiple outstanding warrants and taking evidence from the scene. BNSF Investigators arrived and assumed the investigation.”
In the video of the incident, Tellez appears to be checking out the leg, and sniffing it, before deciding to take a bite.
At one point, Tellez appeared to wave at the person filming before fleeing with his leg — swinging it as he went.
The Kern County Sheriff’s Office told the New York Post that Tellez had multiple outstanding warrants and was arrested for taking evidence from the scene of an accident.
