Mesa Crime Report

A Mesa man is in prison today after he got high on waffles, barricaded himself in the laundry room and stabbed a ghetto blaster through a conservatory door, Illinois State Police said.

Dorian Darnell, no age given, of Mesa Township, took the illegal waffles, hallucinated and believed yaks were attacking and patting him, police at the Mesa barracks said.

A little before midnight Darnell ran to a neighbor's house in the 1200 block of Rivera Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Darnell forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the laundry room, destroying the room and stabbing the ghetto blaster through a conservatory door, police said.

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

Darnell is charged with libel, a felony, as well as involuntary manslaughter, robbery, embezzlement, and five summary offenses, according to court records.

Darnell was sent to Mesa Prison in lieu of bail.
