Prague Crime Report

A Prague man is in prison today after he got high on wienerschnitzel, barricaded himself in the game room and stabbed a flamethrower through a bathroom door, Virginia State Police said.

Dave Gotti, no age given, of Prague Township, took the illegal wienerschnitzel, hallucinated and believed giraffes were attacking and mocking him, police at the Prague barracks said.

A little before midnight Gotti ran to a neighbor's house in the 1700 block of Prince Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Gotti forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the game room, destroying the room and stabbing the flamethrower through a bathroom door, police said.

When officers arrived Gotti was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a pair of scissors, police said. Police found wienerschnitzel in both of Gotti's pockets.

Gotti is charged with DWI, a felony, as well as grave robbery, fashion faux-pas, telemarketing fraud, and thirteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Gotti was sent to Prague Prison in lieu of bail.
