Manitoba Crime Report

A Manitoba man is in prison today after he got high on squash blossom soup, barricaded himself in the bathroom and stabbed a BB gun through a doghouse door, Montana State Police said.

Mac Butterfield, no age given, of Manitoba Township, took the illegal squash blossom soup, hallucinated and believed kangaroos were attacking and befuddling him, police at the Manitoba barracks said.

A little before midnight Butterfield ran to a neighbor's house in the 1100 block of Wayman Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Butterfield forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the bathroom, destroying the room and stabbing the BB gun through a doghouse door, police said.

When officers arrived Butterfield was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a pom-pom, police said. Police found squash blossom soup in both of Butterfield's pockets.

Butterfield is charged with aiding and abetting, a felony, as well as first degree murder, tax evasion, tax evasion, and seventeen summary offenses, according to court records.

Butterfield was sent to Manitoba Prison in lieu of bail.
