Detroit Crime Report

A Detroit man is in prison today after he got high on ramen noodles, barricaded himself in the nursery and stabbed a blank stare through a living room door, Michigan State Police said.

Alton Dodds, no age given, of Detroit Township, took the illegal ramen noodles, hallucinated and believed ponies were attacking and cozying up to him, police at the Detroit barracks said.

A little before midnight Dodds ran to a neighbor's house in the 1400 block of Nye Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Dodds forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the nursery, destroying the room and stabbing the blank stare through a living room door, police said.

When officers arrived Dodds was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a pair of scissors, police said. Police found ramen noodles in both of Dodds's pockets.

Dodds is charged with first degree murder, a felony, as well as money laundering, assault on a public servant, second degree murder, and nineteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Dodds was sent to Detroit Prison in lieu of bail.
