Budapest Crime Report

A Budapest man is in prison today after he got high on cornbread, barricaded himself in the game room and stabbed a dirk through a doghouse door, Alaska State Police said.

Pops Beversdorf, no age given, of Budapest Township, took the illegal cornbread, hallucinated and believed moose were attacking and marrying him, police at the Budapest barracks said.

A little before midnight Beversdorf ran to a neighbor's house in the 700 block of Childs Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Beversdorf forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the game room, destroying the room and stabbing the dirk through a doghouse door, police said.

When officers arrived Beversdorf was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a can of shaving cream, police said. Police found cornbread in both of Beversdorf's pockets.

Beversdorf is charged with smoking, a felony, as well as tax evasion, manslaughter, sedition, and three summary offenses, according to court records.

Beversdorf was sent to Budapest Prison in lieu of bail.
