A man has been arrested after injecting his blood in countless random products at three supermarkets.

37-year-old Leoaai Elghareeb was charged with two counts of assault and three counts of contaminating goods after visiting three supermarkets across London and injecting his blood in random products.

According to the reports, the man first entered a Waitrose store while carrying a bucket of syringes containing his blood.

He then began injecting the blood into random products around the store before leaving at around 8 pm.

Following his disgusting actions, Elghareeb visited two more supermarkets, a Sainsbury’s Local and Tesco Express, with the intent of injecting his blood into food before he was finally caught by the police.

Besides food contamination, the 37-year-old also racked up two assault counts by throwing a needle at a passerby and pushing a security guard.

After the man was apprehended, the three supermarkets were forced to empty the stores and throw away all of the products.

According to the reports, the three stores lost as much as £500,000 [$679,600] as a result of the man’s food contamination spree.

During his court appearance, the defendant pleaded not guilty to all counts of food contamination and assault on the grounds of insanity.

“He was not thinking straight. He was in a situation where he was trying to escape this wrath that the psychosis had created for him. He was so burdened and tortured, is the word he used,” forensic psychiatrist Dr Bradley Hillier told the court.

Meanwhile, the prosecution described the events that occurred as follows: “In short what happened is this: in the early evening of a late summer’s day last year, Mr Elghareeb walked down the Fulham Palace Road in West London carrying a bucket. It was filled with syringes, some of which had hypodermic needles attached.

“A number of those syringes were filled with blood – his own. Mr Elghareeb then entered, in turn, three supermarkets on the Fulham Palace Road – in order: they were Waitrose, Sainsbury’s and Tesco – and he proceeded to stick those syringes in food products inside those branches of those supermarkets.

“Along the way he also threw some of the syringes at people inside and outside the store including hitting a passerby on the street.”

The trial is expected to come to an end today once the jury reaches a verdict.
