‘Naked, spitting, pissing’ BART terrorizing dude identified as Yeiner Perez

From SFGate:

The man was identified by BART police as 24-year-old Yeiner Garizabalo. Friends said Tuesday he goes by Yeiner Perez and is a dedicated acrobat and performer. The episode, they said, was strongly out of character.

“He’s been through a lot of stress — he seems to have been having a breakdown,” said Slim Chance, who leads the Berkeley circus troupe ClownSnotBombs. Perez was a member from January to early May. “That seems to be the tip of it right there. I just can’t tell you anything more because I don’t really know what his state is. It’s not at all like his normal character.”

Chance said Perez, normally a “workaholic acrobat,” stopped showing up to the group’s practices several days before the episode.

“I don’t think it was anything with drugs,” Chance said. “I don’t know. We’re thinking he may have even had a stroke sometime last year. We’ve been trying to piece it together ourselves.”

Well, this explains all of the gymnastics and aerobics the guy was performing, although it doesn’t really explain the naked part or the violent demeanor.  Hopefully this person is able to get the care and help that they clearly need.  Judging from his Facebook profile, he seems like a fairly normal guy (for a circus performer).

    Lets let more in the country!

    Can the reporter delve a bit deeper and find out what actually happened to him after this- was he hospitalized, charged with a crime, or let free…

    I could see Yeiner’s Weiner! Bath salts?

    • Clint Bigwood says:

      I was thinking bath salts too. If they waited for him to eat somebody that would have confirmed it. It’s amazing how a large group of people can stand around doing nothing while he runs amok and assaulting people.

  5. Clint Bigwood says:

    He was booked for assault with a friendly weapon.

    So no sympathy for the woman he knocked around, or the ladies he cornered and flashed? None? Okay, cool then. What a great open-minded community we have here in the Bay Area.

    • V says:

      Agreed.

    • EJ says:

      Just realized something – this happened a month ago. Anyone know if he’s been tried? Will he be? Or are we supposed to advocate for reducing stress in the workplace instead?

    • bellpeppernostrils says:

      fuckin’ extreme thinking here buddy. c’mon. who said we dont have sympathy for the lady? shes just not an interesting character in this story.

    why does everyone harp on the people that didn’t do anything to this guy? he was naked with his junk flopping around and he could do handstands into a flip. unless you’re trained in some martial art like bjj what could a normal bystander do and be effective without a weapon? the maintenance guy had his hands full and was lucky dude didn’t really go wilding on him cuz who knows what he was capable of doing? he coulda took a bite out of his stomach, or gouged his eyes out, or threw him into the tracks with his superclown strength.

      Whoa. Did you just take responsibility for a mistake? Clearly you do not understand how commenting on San Francisco blogs works.

    Saw a KRON 4 news report saying ICE was looking into deporting him, then saw this article stating the Chronicle followed up on his whereabouts, and police no longer know where he is. He’s still out there, folks.
