Morgan Hill – Whether it was the influence of the full moon or a two-day drug binge, a naked and bleeding Morgan Hill man was arrested early Friday morning after he terrorized Jack in the Box employees and a family at a home on Peak Avenue.
Juan Luna, 36, was booked into Santa Clara County Jail, Morgan Hill Police Cmdr. Joe Sampson said.
Luna was arrested on suspicion of felony vandalism, breaking and entering, trespassing and of being under the influence of a controlled substance.
The incident began when Luna, who later told police he’d been doing methamphetamines “for a day or two,” smashed through a double-pane window of a duplex on Peak Avenue .
“He was lacerated pretty good as he crawled in the broken window,” Sampson said. “Once inside, he was screaming at the residents that he was going to kill them.”
The family ran out the back door, Sampson said, and Luna then jumped out of the house through the window.
Luna then apparently decided he needed to go to his mother’s house in Gilroy and contacted a girlfriend, Sampson said. He allegedly asked the girlfriend to take him to his mother’s home.
As the car traveled south on Monterey Road, Sampson said, Luna jumped out. Next, he decided to crawl through the drive-through window at the Jack in the Box restaurant on Monterey Road.
“He was still bleeding profusely, and the employees were terrified,” Sampson said.
At some point, Luna decided to take off his clothes and wrap himself in plastic, Sampson said. He was apparently wandering all over the kitchen of the restaurant.
Customers saw Luna and called police. When officers arrived, they found Luna clothed in the plastic wrap. He was unwilling to go peacefully, until officers told him they would use a taser on him, Sampson said.
