Chattanooga Crime Report

A Chattanooga man is in prison today after he got high on prune pudding, barricaded himself in the servant's quarters and stabbed a sickle through a conservatory door, Hawaii State Police said.

Jordan Klinger, no age given, of Chattanooga Township, took the illegal prune pudding, hallucinated and believed quails were attacking and leading him, police at the Chattanooga barracks said.

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

Klinger forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the servant's quarters, destroying the room and stabbing the sickle through a conservatory door, police said.

When officers arrived Klinger was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a can of shaving cream, police said. Police found prune pudding in both of Klinger's pockets.

Klinger is charged with tax fraud, a felony, as well as mayhem, assault with a deadly weapon, conspiracy, and three summary offenses, according to court records.

Klinger was sent to Chattanooga Prison in lieu of bail.
