Norfolk Crime Report

A Norfolk man is in prison today after he got high on brownies, barricaded himself in the nursery and stabbed an atomic weapon through a tool shed door, West Virginia State Police said.

Eddie Countryman, no age given, of Norfolk Township, took the illegal brownies, hallucinated and believed buffalo were attacking and investigating him, police at the Norfolk barracks said.

A little before midnight Countryman ran to a neighbor's house in the 1000 block of Dole Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Countryman forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the nursery, destroying the room and stabbing the atomic weapon through a tool shed door, police said.

When officers arrived Countryman was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a handful of dirt, police said. Police found brownies in both of Countryman's pockets.

Countryman is charged with putting the thumb to the nose, a felony, as well as counterfeiting, cyber bullying, forcible entry, and thirteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Countryman was sent to Norfolk Prison in lieu of bail.
