St. Petersburg– Talk about strange–it doesn’t get much weirder than this story. St. Petersburg Police claim that at midnight on Friday, September 9, on the porch of a vacant restaurant, an elderly homeless man in a wheelchair was brutally attacked by a woman who said she was a vampire.
If you take the insane woman at her word, then 22-year-old Josephine Smith is an immortal power lurking in the shadows of a Florida city. Police claim the 69-year-old man was sleeping in his wheelchair on a porch when he woke up to Smith on top of him, eating his face. Milton Ellis, the victim, had to be hospitalized and stitched as chunks of flesh were missing from his arm, lips and face.
Police say Smith shouted at her victim during the attack: “I’m a vampire and I’m going to eat you.” Ellis was able to cry for help. When local authorities arrived, they found Smith still on the porch, naked from the waist down and covered in Ellis’ blood.
When taken into custody, Smith told police she had no recollection of the attack or why she was naked and covered in blood.
