Police: 'Half-headed' Florida man arrested

Carlos Rodriguez, 31

MIAMI, Fla. — A Florida man, who gained exposure a few years back for his head injuries leaving him with a deformity, was arrested on Monday after he set a mattress on fire.

Carlos Rodriguez, 31, set his mattress on fire at his Miami-area home on Monday, WSVN reports.

According to The Daily Mail in 2012, when he was brought in for allegedly soliciting prostitution, forms filled out by police allegedly contained no name and a description that read: "half a head."

Rodriguez was arrested and charged with arson and attempted murder because the investigators found he intentionally set a fire that put the lives of others at risk, WSVN reports.

Rodriguez is known for his mugshots since a “large portion of his brain and skull” were removed due to a car crash in which he “flew through his car’s windshield” and landed head-first, WSVN added.
