Woman, 23, dies after taking ‘cannibal zombie’ drug Flakka

A 23-year-old woman has died after taking the drug Flakka – which has been linked to cannibalism and eating live mice – at a house party.

A British woman has died after taking a “zombie” drug linked to users eating live mice, gouging out eyeballs and turning cannibal.

Andrea Horvathova, 23, passed away in hospital after a drug-fuelled house party in Plymouth in March 2018.

An inquest into her death last month heard how the reveller had the potent designer drug Flakka – also known as bath salts – in her system, Plymouth Live reports.

The drug has been linked to a string of chilling attacks in the US after apparently turning users into cannibals.

In 2012, “Miami Zombie” Rudy Eugene was shot dead by police after chewing off homeless Ronald Poppo’s face – leaving him blind in one eye.

Medics later found Flakka was not present in his system but admitted they are unable to test for every drug.

‘CANNIBAL’ DRUG

Other cases include a woman accused of killing her own mother by gouging her eyes out then placing them neatly on top of a cardboard box.

Camille Balla, from Florida, later told authorities she smoked weed, that she believed may have been laced with Flakka.

Flakka-addled Kenneth Crowder, then 41, was arrested in Australia in 2015 while having sex with a tree.

He was spotted running around naked and shouting he was God – with cops having to use a Taser twice to stop him as he attempted to fight them off.

In 2016, a naked British tourist was arrested after running through San Antonio behaving aggressively after taking Flakka.

And in September 2018, a video showing prisoners biting the head off a live mouse while high on the drug caused outrage.

Flakka, which looks like household bath salts, can be eaten, snorted, injected or vaped.

It causes a high similar to cocaine, but also delusions and paranoia.

There are now fears the drug, which costs just $4.45 a hit, could be spreading across the UK.

But Flakka isn’t yet properly recognised in the UK by the authorities – despite numerous reports of substance abuse.

Flakka is one of the most dangerous drugs available because of its side effects.

This man was charged by police after trying to have sex with a tree.

It is one of a number of new drugs sweeping across the UK – including mind-warping Monkey Dust.

The $3.90 synthetic Class B drug – aka Zombie or Cannibal Dust, owing to its violent side effects – is an off-white powder that can be swallowed, injected or snorted.

In a video released by police, a man believed to be on Monkey Dust is seen on the roof of a house, before falling off and landing on a car. He then leaps up and grapples with cops.

Drug expert Abbas Kanani told The Sun Online previously: “Flakka appears to be gaining popularity in the UK due to its low price at $4.45-a-hit – it’s extremely worrying.

“In 2018 there were 950 cases reported of paramedics finding users in a zombie like state.

“Gangs are now trying to bring this product in, and there have been reports of a growing number of users of this drug.”
