Modesto Crime Report

A Modesto man is in prison today after he got high on moo goo gai pan, barricaded himself in the servant's quarters and stabbed a ghetto blaster through a library door, Maryland State Police said.

Ira Zhao, no age given, of Modesto Township, took the illegal moo goo gai pan, hallucinated and believed cats were attacking and making a face at him, police at the Modesto barracks said.

A little before midnight Zhao ran to a neighbor's house in the 700 block of Gustafson Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Zhao forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the servant's quarters, destroying the room and stabbing the ghetto blaster through a library door, police said.

When officers arrived Zhao was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a Millwall brick, police said. Police found moo goo gai pan in both of Zhao's pockets.

Zhao is charged with probation violation, a felony, as well as winking, money laundering, resisting arrest, and twelve summary offenses, according to court records.

Zhao was sent to Modesto Prison in lieu of bail.
