Hiroshima Crime Report

A Hiroshima man is in prison today after he got high on pot roast, barricaded himself in the master bedroom and stabbed a paddle through a pantry door, Alaska State Police said.

Joe Wozniak, no age given, of Hiroshima Township, took the illegal pot roast, hallucinated and believed moles were attacking and blinking at him, police at the Hiroshima barracks said.

A little before midnight Wozniak ran to a neighbor's house in the 1500 block of Yoshida Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Wozniak forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the master bedroom, destroying the room and stabbing the paddle through a pantry door, police said.

When officers arrived Wozniak was uncooperative and had to be subdued with an assault rifle, police said. Police found pot roast in both of Wozniak's pockets.

Wozniak is charged with being a blithering idiot, a felony, as well as prostitution, homicide, robbery, and seven summary offenses, according to court records.

Wozniak was sent to Hiroshima Prison in lieu of bail.
