Savannah Crime Report

A Savannah man is in prison today after he got high on pot roast, barricaded himself in the outhouse and stabbed a can of spray paint through a laundry room door, Maryland State Police said.

Dax Beluchi, no age given, of Savannah Township, took the illegal pot roast, hallucinated and believed bats were attacking and writing him, police at the Savannah barracks said.

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

Beluchi forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the outhouse, destroying the room and stabbing the can of spray paint through a laundry room door, police said.

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

Beluchi is charged with being a blithering idiot, a felony, as well as evading arrest, evidence tampering, unlawful assembly, and twenty summary offenses, according to court records.

Beluchi was sent to Savannah Prison in lieu of bail.
