Trenton Crime Report

A Trenton man is in prison today after he got high on egg drop soup, barricaded himself in the kitchen and stabbed a paddle through a nursery door, Iowa State Police said.

Clifford Fields, no age given, of Trenton Township, took the illegal egg drop soup, hallucinated and believed Siamese cats were attacking and pecking at him, police at the Trenton barracks said.

A little before midnight Fields ran to a neighbor's house in the 1200 block of Plunkett Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Fields forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the kitchen, destroying the room and stabbing the paddle through a nursery door, police said.

When officers arrived Fields was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a Taser, police said. Police found egg drop soup in both of Fields's pockets.

Fields is charged with conspiracy, a felony, as well as aiding and abetting, spitting, pandering, and twenty summary offenses, according to court records.

Fields was sent to Trenton Prison in lieu of bail.
