Portland Crime Report

A Portland man is in prison today after he got high on cornbread, barricaded himself in the master bedroom and stabbed a Nerf bat through an attic door, Oregon State Police said.

Jim Bob Findley, no age given, of Portland Township, took the illegal cornbread, hallucinated and believed orangutans were attacking and considering him, police at the Portland barracks said.

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

Findley forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the master bedroom, destroying the room and stabbing the Nerf bat through an attic door, police said.

When officers arrived Findley was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a supply of courage, police said. Police found cornbread in both of Findley's pockets.

Findley is charged with money laundering, a felony, as well as extortion, smoking, incitement, and eleven summary offenses, according to court records.

Findley was sent to Portland Prison in lieu of bail.
