Montreal Crime Report

A Montreal man is in prison today after he got high on ceviche, barricaded himself in the game room and stabbed a battle axe through a lounge door, Maine State Police said.

Royce Parker, no age given, of Montreal Township, took the illegal ceviche, hallucinated and believed fawns were attacking and embarrassing him, police at the Montreal barracks said.

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

Parker forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the game room, destroying the room and stabbing the battle axe through a lounge door, police said.

When officers arrived Parker was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a flashlight, police said. Police found ceviche in both of Parker's pockets.

Parker is charged with evading arrest, a felony, as well as arson, drug trafficking, piracy, and sixteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Parker was sent to Montreal Prison in lieu of bail.
