Dodge City Crime Report

A Dodge City man is in prison today after he got high on pot roast, barricaded himself in the corridor and stabbed a photon torpedo through an auditorium door, Oklahoma State Police said.

Bert Arnold, no age given, of Dodge City Township, took the illegal pot roast, hallucinated and believed tarantulas were attacking and hypnotizing him, police at the Dodge City barracks said.

A little before midnight Arnold ran to a neighbor's house in the 2200 block of Gleason Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Arnold forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the corridor, destroying the room and stabbing the photon torpedo through an auditorium door, police said.

When officers arrived Arnold was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a snowball, police said. Police found pot roast in both of Arnold's pockets.

Arnold is charged with harboring a fugitive, a felony, as well as espionage, minor in possession, grave robbery, and ten summary offenses, according to court records.

Arnold was sent to Dodge City Prison in lieu of bail.
