A man is accused of taking the leg of a pedestrian who was hit by a train in Wasco, California, and eating the severed limb on Friday morning.
The suspect, identified as Resendo Tellez, 27, allegedly removed the evidence from the Amtrak station, KUTV reported Monday.
Deputies arrived with the BNSF Railroad Police Department after the pedestrian was hit by one of BNSF's trains, according to 23 ABC News.
“Deputies said they learned that Tellez allegedly removed evidence, a leg, from the scene,” the KUTV article said, noting the suspect was located and officials arrested him on several outstanding warrants and for allegedly taking the evidence.
Witness Jose Ibarra spoke with Fox 58 about the incident. During the interview, he pointed to where he saw the suspect standing on the side of the road. “He walked all through here and he was waving like, a person's leg. He started chewing on it over there, he was biting it. Then he was hitting it against the wall and everything,” he recalled.

“On the leg, the skin was hanging. You could see the bone,” said Ibarra, who added he believes the man is homeless.
The Fox 58 report noted it was unclear who the leg belongs to or who was injured. However, the outlet said one person died as a result of the train incident.
