Nairobi Crime Report

A Nairobi man is in prison today after he got high on moo goo gai pan, barricaded himself in the linen closet and stabbed a potato masher through a solarium door, Puerto Rico State Police said.

Craig Wykes, no age given, of Nairobi Township, took the illegal moo goo gai pan, hallucinated and believed ring-tailed lemurs were attacking and annoying him, police at the Nairobi barracks said.

A little before midnight Wykes ran to a neighbor's house in the 2500 block of Stringer Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Wykes forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the linen closet, destroying the room and stabbing the potato masher through a solarium door, police said.

When officers arrived Wykes was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a peacemaker, police said. Police found moo goo gai pan in both of Wykes's pockets.

Wykes is charged with escape from lawful custody, a felony, as well as putting the thumb to the nose, drug manufacturing, murder, and eight summary offenses, according to court records.

Wykes was sent to Nairobi Prison in lieu of bail.
