Half-headed Florida man charged with attempted murder after setting mattress on fire

A half-headed Florida man with a deformed skull was charged with arson and attempted murder for allegedly setting his mattress on fire at his home.

Carlos Rodriguez, nicknamed “Halfy” by friends, was in his home when he decided to light his mattress on fire Monday afternoon, local police told WSVN Miami.

It was not immediately clear why he set his mattress on fire.

The mugshots, which circulated on Twitter, showed Rodriguez giving a chilling smile, while the other showed the large dent in his skull.

Carlos Rodriguez, 31, set his mattress on fire at his home, according to local Miami police.

The 31-year-old appeared in court Tuesday under a $20,000 bond, the station reported. Rodriguez emerged onto the scene in a 2012 YouTube video explaining how he lost a portion of his head in a car accident while on drugs. “I was barred out on drugs and I was driving and I hit a pole. I flew out the front window and landed on my head,” he said, while he was happily smoking a blunt on camera.
