Fargo Crime Report

A Fargo man is in prison today after he got high on pecan pie, barricaded himself in the patio and stabbed a sickle through a dining room door, Oklahoma State Police said.

Buddy Peterson, no age given, of Fargo Township, took the illegal pecan pie, hallucinated and believed gophers were attacking and reassuring him, police at the Fargo barracks said.

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

Peterson forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the patio, destroying the room and stabbing the sickle through a dining room door, police said.

When officers arrived Peterson was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a squirt gun, police said. Police found pecan pie in both of Peterson's pockets.

Peterson is charged with DWI, a felony, as well as larceny, dereliction of duty, flirting, and three summary offenses, according to court records.

Peterson was sent to Fargo Prison in lieu of bail.
