A 19-year old guy, high either on flakka or dibutylone, reportedly attacked a mother and son in Florida. It happened a week after a frat boy had stabbed two people to death while high on the same substance.
Nico Gallo was reported to have 'cannonballed' through the front window of the victims' home in Stuart, Martin County. Gallo grabbed a 55-year-old woman who was also screaming for her son. When the son rushed to the old woman and wrestled with Gallo, the woman had the chance to hit Gallo over the head with a baseball bat. Finally, the old woman was able to grab the phone and anxiously call 911, screaming. She was bleeding while telling the police that she did not have any idea who the man was.
Here is how the call went through, according to Dailymail:
- Victim: "I need police! Someone just broke into my house! He broke through my window! I'm bleeding! Get off him!' the woman is heard screaming in the 911 call."
- Dispatcher: "Ma'am, I need you to talk to me."
- Victim: "I just hit him with a baseball bat! I just hit him two more times! He won't leave us alone! He's just going crazy. He's attacking! I have no idea who he is!"
The description of the officers for Gallo was that of having 'extreme strength and a high tolerance to pain,' just as how other flakka cases have been recorded. Gallo's behavior was much like that of the frat boy Austin Harrouff who killed a couple, of which he ate the face of the male victim.
Flakka-connected incidents have been reported for the past month and many people, especially those in NYC and Florida are consciously struck by the idea of the rise of zombies. As flakka continues to drive fear in these two cities and others, how can anyone be at peace?
