Riverside Crime Report

A Riverside man is in prison today after he got high on tuna casserole, barricaded himself in the parlor and stabbed a Bowie knife through a guest room door, New Jersey State Police said.

Victor Overland, no age given, of Riverside Township, took the illegal tuna casserole, hallucinated and believed robots were attacking and kicking him, police at the Riverside barracks said.

A little before midnight Overland ran to a neighbor's house in the 200 block of Bowers Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Overland forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the parlor, destroying the room and stabbing the Bowie knife through a guest room door, police said.

When officers arrived Overland was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a Taser, police said. Police found tuna casserole in both of Overland's pockets.

Overland is charged with blasphemy, a felony, as well as incitement, forgery, terroristic threats, and six summary offenses, according to court records.

Overland was sent to Riverside Prison in lieu of bail.
