“Deputies learned that 27-year old Resendo Tellez removed evidence from the accident scene. Tellez was located and arrested without incident for multiple outstanding warrants and taking evidence from the scene. BNSF Investigators arrived and assumed the investigation.”

In the video of the incident, Tellez appears to be checking out the leg, and sniffing it, before deciding to take a bite.

At one point, Tellez appeared to wave at the person filming before fleeing with his leg — swinging it as he went.

The Kern County Sheriff’s Office told the New York Post that Tellez had multiple outstanding warrants and was arrested for taking evidence from the scene of an accident.
