Tunis Crime Report

A Tunis man is in prison today after he got high on hamburgers, barricaded himself in the library and stabbed a wet noodle through a workshop door, Idaho State Police said.

Ivan Kissling, no age given, of Tunis Township, took the illegal hamburgers, hallucinated and believed rabbits were attacking and neglecting him, police at the Tunis barracks said.

A little before midnight Kissling ran to a neighbor's house in the 1100 block of Banks Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Kissling forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the library, destroying the room and stabbing the wet noodle through a workshop door, police said.

When officers arrived Kissling was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a wet washrag, police said. Police found hamburgers in both of Kissling's pockets.

Kissling is charged with shoplifting, a felony, as well as minor in possession, putting the thumb to the nose, conspiracy, and thirteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Kissling was sent to Tunis Prison in lieu of bail.
