Kabul Crime Report

A Kabul man is in prison today after he got high on mashed potatoes, barricaded himself in the dungeon and stabbed a political action committee through a kitchen door, Connecticut State Police said.

Butch McCord, no age given, of Kabul Township, took the illegal mashed potatoes, hallucinated and believed yetis were attacking and losing him, police at the Kabul barracks said.

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

McCord forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the dungeon, destroying the room and stabbing the political action committee through a kitchen door, police said.

When officers arrived McCord was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a torpedo, police said. Police found mashed potatoes in both of McCord's pockets.

McCord is charged with trespass, a felony, as well as winking, pyramid schemes, arson, and three summary offenses, according to court records.

McCord was sent to Kabul Prison in lieu of bail.
