Kenneth Crowder was arrested after trying to have sex with a tree (Brevard County Sheriff)

A man high on ‘flakka’ has been arrested after being Tasered twice by police who caught him having sex with a tree.

Kenneth Crowder, 41, is also alleged to have attacked a police officer and claimed he was God while running naked through a neighbourhood in Melbourne, Florida.

A woman who called emergency services also said he tried to suck his own penis.

When police first arrived at the scene they said he had jeans and a T-shirt on. He walked over to them, according to a police report, and they Tasered him twice, but he pulled the probes out both times.

He then said he was Thor and tried to use an officer’s badge to stab him before other officers arrived to help.

Speaking about Flakka, a synthetic substance known as bath salts, police spokesman Dan Lynch said: ‘We have spoken to some medical professionals here and they are starting to see an increase in its use (in Brevard County).

‘It’s already in South Florida, and we think it’s coming here.”
