Krakow Crime Report

A Krakow man is in prison today after he got high on lobster bisque, barricaded himself in the game room and stabbed a hand grenade through a closet door, Kansas State Police said.

Newton Downer, no age given, of Krakow Township, took the illegal lobster bisque, hallucinated and believed butterflies were attacking and controlling him, police at the Krakow barracks said.

A little before midnight Downer ran to a neighbor's house in the 2300 block of Barry Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Downer forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the game room, destroying the room and stabbing the hand grenade through a closet door, police said.

When officers arrived Downer was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a Nerf bat, police said. Police found lobster bisque in both of Downer's pockets.

Downer is charged with criminal contempt, a felony, as well as spitting, libel, evidence tampering, and nineteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Downer was sent to Krakow Prison in lieu of bail.
