This good deed didn't go unpunished after got people got stabbed by a Homeless Florida man in Indiantown who wasn’t exactly thrilled with their offer of help. According to WPEC, The Martin County Sheriff's Office said this dude, Jerquavious Jackson, 24 years old, walked up to them at a park, asking for some cash. Now, instead of handing him money, these two thought maybe food would help him out. Well, Jackson wasn’t feelin’ that answer, and that’s when everything went from chill to freaking chaotic.

The homeless Florida man snapped. And I’m not talking about a little frustration, this dude went full on cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. He started straight-up stabbing them. One of the victims had the idea of getting it all on camera. I can’t imagine why they didn't just run but the Martin County Sheriff's Office said that video was brutal.

In the clip, Jackson can be seen lifting one of the victims off the ground and then body slamming them onto the pavement. After he stabbed both victims, the homeless Florida man decided he wasn’t done yet and took off on one of their bicycles. Because robbery? Why not?

Homeless Florida Man Search:

Now, as bad as this sounds, both of those victims got really lucky. Yeah, they got stabbed, but their injuries weren’t life-threatening. So, I guess that’s the only silver lining in this mess.

The second this went down, deputies started searching the area, trying to find Jackson before he hurt anyone else. Turns out, he didn’t get far. They found him at a Circle K convenience store, and it looked like he was on the hunt for more people to rob. Thankfully, the deputies got to him before he could pull any more stunts.

When they arrested him, Jackson was still holding onto a box cutter, and surprise, surprise… It had dried blood on it. At that point, it was game over for the homeless Florida man. He was arrested and tossed into the Martin County Jail, facing a long list of charges, including armed robbery, aggravated battery, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

So yeah, no good deed goes unpunished. At least no lives were lost, and Jackson is off the streets.
