Sidney Crime Report

A Sidney man is in prison today after he got high on hash, barricaded himself in the bathroom and stabbed a golf club through a dungeon door, North Dakota State Police said.

Harvey Normal, no age given, of Sidney Township, took the illegal hash, hallucinated and believed cocker spaniels were attacking and judging him, police at the Sidney barracks said.

A little before midnight Normal ran to a neighbor's house in the 600 block of Glover Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Normal forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the bathroom, destroying the room and stabbing the golf club through a dungeon door, police said.

When officers arrived Normal was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a blow pipe, police said. Police found hash in both of Normal's pockets.

Normal is charged with drug possession, a felony, as well as drug manufacturing, embezzlement, probation violation, and eleven summary offenses, according to court records.

Normal was sent to Sidney Prison in lieu of bail.
