It happened right here in North Carolina!

In an incident that played out like a scene from a horror film, a 19-year-old North Carolina man has been accused of chasing two people through the woods, cutting them with a large machete as they ran in terror.

Randleman resident Ellijah Stone Bailey was taken into custody Monday in connection with the incident, which occurred in a wooded area about 75 miles west of Raleigh, sheriff's officials report. Baily has been charged with felony assault with a deadly weapon and is being held on $350,000 bond.

While investigators have released few details regarding the incident, deputies say both victims were found with "large wounds" after "being chased through the woods by a subject armed with a machete." One of the victims was discovered "covered in blood and sitting in the driveway just a short distance from the wood line," Bailey's arrest report indicates.

Both victims are expected to recover from their injuries, a sheriff's rep says.
