Volusia County (Florida) Branch Jail
Florida police say Erik John Batty's pillow could be considered "biohazardous" because he has several diseases... so they arrested him when he threw it at them. They had been called to the 40-year-old man's home by his father, who was concerned that his son was trying to kill himself, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
