Welcome to the age of Twilight, where 22-year-old Josephine Smith thinks she's a vampire and allegedly bit a 69-year-old homeless man sleeping outside a Hooters restaurant.
According to an arrest affidavit from the St. Petersburg Police Department, the elderly gentleman was sleeping outside the Hooters around midnight yesterday when Smith got on top of him and said, "I'm a vampire, I am going to eat you."
That's when the cops say Smith began to bite the man.
Smith "bit the victim on the arm, removing the top layer of his skin," the report says.
She also bit through the man's upper lower lips, which the man later received stitches for, police say.
The man eventually got away and phoned the cops, leading to Smith's arrest.
Smith is charged with aggravated battery on an elderly person, and is currently being held in the Pinellas County Jail on $50,000 bond.
