Manila Crime Report

A Manila man is in prison today after he got high on fried chicken, barricaded himself in the tool shed and stabbed a hand sanitizer through a linen closet door, Vermont State Police said.

Billy Eichmann, no age given, of Manila Township, took the illegal fried chicken, hallucinated and believed ostriches were attacking and challenging him, police at the Manila barracks said.

A little before midnight Eichmann ran to a neighbor's house in the 1300 block of Eklund Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Eichmann forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the tool shed, destroying the room and stabbing the hand sanitizer through a linen closet door, police said.

When officers arrived Eichmann was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a mace, police said. Police found fried chicken in both of Eichmann's pockets.

Eichmann is charged with domestic violence, a felony, as well as slander, stalking, terroristic threats, and two summary offenses, according to court records.

Eichmann was sent to Manila Prison in lieu of bail.
