Algiers Crime Report

An Algiers man is in prison today after he got high on blueberry pie, barricaded himself in the master bathroom and stabbed a scythe through a pool room door, Delaware State Police said.

Sebastian Vigil, no age given, of Algiers Township, took the illegal blueberry pie, hallucinated and believed tarantulas were attacking and outrunning him, police at the Algiers barracks said.

A little before midnight Vigil ran to a neighbor's house in the 100 block of Rand Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Vigil forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the master bathroom, destroying the room and stabbing the scythe through a pool room door, police said.

When officers arrived Vigil was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a defibrillator, police said. Police found blueberry pie in both of Vigil's pockets.

Vigil is charged with second degree murder, a felony, as well as shoplifting, running a bingo game, abuse of authority, and eighteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Vigil was sent to Algiers Prison in lieu of bail.
