Dubai Crime Report

A Dubai man is in prison today after he got high on hot dogs, barricaded himself in the linen closet and stabbed a lead pipe through a solarium door, Maryland State Police said.

Cosmo Springer, no age given, of Dubai Township, took the illegal hot dogs, hallucinated and believed monkeys were attacking and bumping him, police at the Dubai barracks said.

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

Springer forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the linen closet, destroying the room and stabbing the lead pipe through a solarium door, police said.

When officers arrived Springer was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a six-pack, police said. Police found hot dogs in both of Springer's pockets.

Springer is charged with hate crimes, a felony, as well as fashion faux-pas, burglary, child abuse, and six summary offenses, according to court records.

Springer was sent to Dubai Prison in lieu of bail.
