Woman Bites Another Woman, Calls It 'Zombie Game': Cops
Rocha is Being Held in the Coos County Jail on $77,500 bail.
A woman from Oregon was put behind bars for playing what she calls "The Zombie Game." Strange as it sounds, the woman influenced by Zombie video games tried to imitate the same in reality.
Authorities in Oregon stated that the woman, Jessica Rocha, was arrested after she broke into another woman's house. The deputies arrived at the spot at 1 am after they received a report that a woman dressed in jeans and a dark hoodie was attempting to break into a home on North Eighth Street in Lakeside. The caller informed them that the burglar was behaving violently with the resident, Erica Tate.
Rocha pushed the 37-year-old woman down a staircase and pulled her hair. She began biting the Tate all over her face. The bite marks are still clearly visible, and she even told the victim that she was playing the "Zombie game."
Unable to discern if she said that in a fit of rage or is a mentally unstable person, Coos County sheriff's Sgt. Pat Downing said that she no doubt broke into the home in coastal city of Lakeside. He also stated that she was drunk and "likely high." Rocha faces felony charges.
Downing said that the reason for her to refer to the zombie game is still unknown, but they have found evidence that she had a liking for such games. He said that Rocha had property with a sticker that "referenced a video game featuring zombies." Her strange behaviour has got the officials thinking.
Deputies are also of the opinion that her behaviour may have been influenced by a scarecrow contest that was conducted in the area.
According to the Coos County Sheriff's Office, Jessica Rocha is charged with first-degree attempted burglary, fourth-degree assault, harassment, unlawful entry to a motor vehicle and third-degree criminal mischief.
Rocha is being held in the Coos County Jail on $77,500 bail. It is still not known neither is there an immediate record that she has a lawyer.
