MAN TAKES BODY PART FROM SCENE OF DEADLY TRAIN COLLISION IN KERN COUNTY: AUTHORITIES

Sunday, March 24, 2024 11:36AM PT

A man was arrested for allegedly taking a severed body part from the scene of a collision between an Amtrak train and a person on the tracks in Kern County.

The incident happened in Wasco, a city just north of Bakersfield.

A graphic video going viral on social media shows the man who authorities say took the body part from the scene. In the footage, he is seen carrying a severed lower leg and foot down a street in the area.

At one point, the man bent over and appeared to sniff the apparent body part.
