Prague Crime Report

A Prague man is in prison today after he got high on egg salad sandwich, barricaded himself in the corridor and stabbed an angry glare through a guest room door, Missouri State Police said.

Ray Emerson, no age given, of Prague Township, took the illegal egg salad sandwich, hallucinated and believed rabbits were attacking and spitting at him, police at the Prague barracks said.

A little before midnight Emerson ran to a neighbor's house in the 2000 block of Fontanaro Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Emerson forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the corridor, destroying the room and stabbing the angry glare through a guest room door, police said.

When officers arrived Emerson was uncooperative and had to be subdued with an air rifle, police said. Police found egg salad sandwich in both of Emerson's pockets.

Emerson is charged with harassment, a felony, as well as kidnapping, insurance fraud, hate crimes, and thirteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Emerson was sent to Prague Prison in lieu of bail.
