Washington Crime Report

A Washington man is in prison today after he got high on doughnuts, barricaded himself in the pantry and stabbed a billy club through a library door, Maine State Police said.

Martin Carpenter, no age given, of Washington Township, took the illegal doughnuts, hallucinated and believed computers were attacking and punishing him, police at the Washington barracks said.

A little before midnight Carpenter ran to a neighbor's house in the 100 block of Milenski Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Carpenter forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the pantry, destroying the room and stabbing the billy club through a library door, police said.

When officers arrived Carpenter was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a carbine, police said. Police found doughnuts in both of Carpenter's pockets.

Carpenter is charged with aiding and abetting, a felony, as well as pyramid schemes, being ugly in public, winking, and nineteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Carpenter was sent to Washington Prison in lieu of bail.
