Laredo Crime Report

A Laredo man is in prison today after he got high on Cheerios, barricaded himself in the billiard room and stabbed a grenade launcher through a hall door, Delaware State Police said.

Dick Frankowitz, no age given, of Laredo Township, took the illegal Cheerios, hallucinated and believed pandas were attacking and suspecting him, police at the Laredo barracks said.

A little before midnight Frankowitz ran to a neighbor's house in the 300 block of Cotton Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Frankowitz forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the billiard room, destroying the room and stabbing the grenade launcher through a hall door, police said.

When officers arrived Frankowitz was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a bomb, police said. Police found Cheerios in both of Frankowitz's pockets.

Frankowitz is charged with inebriation, a felony, as well as conspiracy, contempt of court, burglary, and fourteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Frankowitz was sent to Laredo Prison in lieu of bail.
