Fort Wayne Crime Report

A Fort Wayne man is in prison today after he got high on tortillas, barricaded himself in the patio and stabbed a lead pipe through a laundry room door, Vermont State Police said.

Reynaldo Spanbauer, no age given, of Fort Wayne Township, took the illegal tortillas, hallucinated and believed lambs were attacking and peeking at him, police at the Fort Wayne barracks said.

A little before midnight Spanbauer ran to a neighbor's house in the 900 block of Diaz Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Spanbauer forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the patio, destroying the room and stabbing the lead pipe through a laundry room door, police said.

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

Spanbauer is charged with theft, a felony, as well as hanky-panky, assault on a public servant, hate crimes, and sixteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Spanbauer was sent to Fort Wayne Prison in lieu of bail.
