Eugene Crime Report

An Eugene man is in prison today after he got high on pumpkin pie, barricaded himself in the tool shed and stabbed a flamethrower through a cage door, West Virginia State Police said.

Jake Radcliffe, no age given, of Eugene Township, took the illegal pumpkin pie, hallucinated and believed grizzly bears were attacking and studying him, police at the Eugene barracks said.

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

Radcliffe forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the tool shed, destroying the room and stabbing the flamethrower through a cage door, police said.

When officers arrived Radcliffe was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a pom-pom, police said. Police found pumpkin pie in both of Radcliffe's pockets.

Radcliffe is charged with pandering, a felony, as well as child endangerment, cyber bullying, open container violation, and sixteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Radcliffe was sent to Eugene Prison in lieu of bail.
