Oneal Ron Morris, arrested recently in Miami-Dade County after being accused of posing as a plastic surgeon, has an arrest record in Hillsborough County.
Morris was arrested three times between 2000-2002 in Hillsborough County, once for trespassing and twice for grand theft of a motor vehicle.
Morris is accused of injecting fix-a-flat, cement, super glue and mineral oil into a woman who was seeking a curvier figure.
The victim, who is not being named due to medical privacy laws, paid $700 for a series of injections in May 2010. She was referred to Morris by a friend.
Morris reassured the woman when the pain became too intense, police said. They said the victim was reluctant to come forward. She quickly went to two South Florida hospitals due to severe abdominal pain and infected sores on her buttocks accompanied by flu-like symptoms. But she left each time, too embarrassed to tell doctors what she'd done.
Authorities believe there are other victims who may be too embarrassed to come forward.
