Acapulco Crime Report

An Acapulco man is in prison today after he got high on bonbons, barricaded himself in the porch and stabbed a weed whacker through a master bedroom door, Puerto Rico State Police said.

Cosmo Shipman, no age given, of Acapulco Township, took the illegal bonbons, hallucinated and believed lemurs were attacking and operating on him, police at the Acapulco barracks said.

A little before midnight Shipman ran to a neighbor's house in the 1800 block of Blevins Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Shipman forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the porch, destroying the room and stabbing the weed whacker through a master bedroom door, police said.

When officers arrived Shipman was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a hatchet, police said. Police found bonbons in both of Shipman's pockets.

Shipman is charged with abuse of authority, a felony, as well as trespass, swearing, spitting, and nine summary offenses, according to court records.

Shipman was sent to Acapulco Prison in lieu of bail.
