Jacksonville Crime Report

A Jacksonville man is in prison today after he got high on apple pie, barricaded himself in the billiard room and stabbed a battle axe through a basement door, Maine State Police said.

Roscoe Tubman, no age given, of Jacksonville Township, took the illegal apple pie, hallucinated and believed snakes were attacking and covering him, police at the Jacksonville barracks said.

A little before midnight Tubman ran to a neighbor's house in the 1600 block of Carter Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Tubman forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the billiard room, destroying the room and stabbing the battle axe through a basement door, police said.

When officers arrived Tubman was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a crossbow, police said. Police found apple pie in both of Tubman's pockets.

Tubman is charged with drug trafficking, a felony, as well as child endangerment, insurance fraud, minor in possession, and six summary offenses, according to court records.

Tubman was sent to Jacksonville Prison in lieu of bail.
