MAN ACCUSED OF KILLING AND EATING DOG.

A man high on synthetic marijuana killed and ate a 30- to 40-pound dog, according to police.

Michael Daniel of Waco, Texas, was charged on Monday for an incident earlier this month in which he allegedly got down “on his hands and knees and chased a neighbor while barking and growling like a dog,” according to KWTZ.

Daniel then took a black dog onto a house's front porch, beat and strangled the canine and then “began to bite into the dog, ripping pieces of flesh away,” Waco Police Sgt. Patrick Swanton told KWTZ.

Daniel allegedly told neighbors he was high on synthetic marijuana, sometimes called K-2.

When officers arrived, Daniel had "blood and fur around his mouth," Swanton told KXXV.

Daniel is charged with cruelty to a non-livestock animal.

The story comes days after Michigan Governor Rick Snyder signed bills banning the sale of synthetic marijuana. The drug was linked to several tragedies around the state, including a Bloomfield Township teen's reported fatal overdose.

More than 40 other states have passed similar bills.

Daniel's alleged attack also comes in the wake of a series of cannibalistic attacks, mostly on the East Coast, some of which have been linked to another drug commonly called "bath salts."

Rioters, in counter-reprisal attacks, are defying the curfew imposed by Governor Patrick Yakowa, and are burning houses in Malali area, a source has just confirmed to SaharaReporters.

About four houses, according to a security official who also confirmed the situation report, are in flames now in Ungwan Yer, in Malali. The source said the rioters have also burnt houses in Ungwan Dosa and Kawo.

He said soldiers and the police had a tough time before the rioters retreated to Kawo area where they allegedly came from. He said they were seen holding several AK 47 guns, and firing at their targets from distance. The situation has created panic in nearby Ungwan Gado.

At least 70 people have been killed in reprisal attacks following the bombing of thre churches carried out by islamist militant sect Boko Haram last Sunday.

In a related incident today, a member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has taken to social media to appeal to the authorities to get them out of the Kaduna State, saying that the situation has become a religious crisis.

“We are trapped in the State and our parents are dead worried as to our safety,” he said in posting on Facebook.

“I am using this medium to call on the NYSC authorities to find a way to get us out of this State and possibly redeploy us to safer States outside the Northern part of Nigeria,” the unidentified NYSC member said. “We need to leave as soon as possible before it escalates. We are scared and the State is no longer safe and the crisis is beginning to affect us psychologically and we are depressed. We cannot continue this way. We need to leave as soon as possible.”
