Police Caught Him With A Human Brain And What He Used It For Is So Nuts

                                                                                  
When it comes to guilty criminals, they're not necessarily expected to act logically. Even if you don't expect it, however, this kind of behavior can still come as a surprise when you read about it in the news. Take, for example, the case of 26-year-old Joshua Lee Long from Penn Township, Pennsylvania.

Earlier this summer, Long was arrested in connection with several burglaries in the area. Not long after his arrest, a neighbor watched a large number of police vehicles show up at Long’s vacant trailer home.

Before they left, the neighbor witnessed a detective remove a mysterious box from the property.

So what was in the secret box? Oh, just a stolen human brain labeled "Freddy."

</div> <h3>Mixing marijuana with embalming fluid is surprisingly common. The chemicals in embalming fluid have been known to produce a variety of different reactions when smoked.</h3>

In more extreme cases, it can cause vivid hallucinations.</p> <p>(via <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/07/16/robbery-suspect-kept-stolen-brain-beneath-porch-and-used-it-to-get-high-police-say/" target="_blank">The Washington Post</a>)

Stealing a brain to help get you high…now that’s something I haven’t heard of before. Police say they believe the brain came from a researcher’s office of some kind. If you know anyone who is missing a brain, you can contact Penn Township police.
