Santiago Crime Report

A Santiago man is in prison today after he got high on enchiladas, barricaded himself in the atrium and stabbed a bad breath through a bedroom door, Connecticut State Police said.

Nestor Flowers, no age given, of Santiago Township, took the illegal enchiladas, hallucinated and believed lovebirds were attacking and encouraging him, police at the Santiago barracks said.

A little before midnight Flowers ran to a neighbor's house in the 1400 block of Panzer Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Flowers forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the atrium, destroying the room and stabbing the bad breath through a bedroom door, police said.

When officers arrived Flowers was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a dirt clod, police said. Police found enchiladas in both of Flowers's pockets.

Flowers is charged with voluntary manslaughter, a felony, as well as being a blithering idiot, disorderly conduct, fabrication of evidence, and fourteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Flowers was sent to Santiago Prison in lieu of bail.
