Ho Chi Minh City Crime Report

A Ho Chi Minh City man is in prison today after he got high on tuna casserole, barricaded himself in the linen closet and stabbed an angry glare through a workshop door, Connecticut State Police said.

Mickey Brooks, no age given, of Ho Chi Minh City Township, took the illegal tuna casserole, hallucinated and believed moles were attacking and belittling him, police at the Ho Chi Minh City barracks said.

A little before midnight Brooks ran to a neighbor's house in the 2400 block of South Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Brooks forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the linen closet, destroying the room and stabbing the angry glare through a workshop door, police said.

When officers arrived Brooks was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a harpoon, police said. Police found tuna casserole in both of Brooks's pockets.

Brooks is charged with grave robbery, a felony, as well as dereliction of duty, espionage, aggravated assault, and thirteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Brooks was sent to Ho Chi Minh City Prison in lieu of bail.
