Trenton Crime Report

A Trenton man is in prison today after he got high on lime sherbet, barricaded himself in the ballroom and stabbed a stick of dynamite through a bathroom door, Colorado State Police said.

Willard Winkler, no age given, of Trenton Township, took the illegal lime sherbet, hallucinated and believed monsters were attacking and spanking him, police at the Trenton barracks said.

A little before midnight Winkler ran to a neighbor's house in the 2500 block of Rush Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Winkler forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the ballroom, destroying the room and stabbing the stick of dynamite through a bathroom door, police said.

When officers arrived Winkler was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a lasso, police said. Police found lime sherbet in both of Winkler's pockets.

Winkler is charged with assault on a public servant, a felony, as well as assault on a public servant, minor in possession, cheating, and nineteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Winkler was sent to Trenton Prison in lieu of bail.
