Havana Crime Report

A Havana man is in prison today after he got high on chocolate-covered ants, barricaded himself in the hall and stabbed a hand grenade through an auditorium door, North Dakota State Police said.

Greg Finlayson, no age given, of Havana Township, took the illegal chocolate-covered ants, hallucinated and believed Pekingeses were attacking and imitating him, police at the Havana barracks said.

A little before midnight Finlayson ran to a neighbor's house in the 500 block of Tubman Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Finlayson forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the hall, destroying the room and stabbing the hand grenade through an auditorium door, police said.

When officers arrived Finlayson was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a bullwhip, police said. Police found chocolate-covered ants in both of Finlayson's pockets.

Finlayson is charged with unlawful assembly, a felony, as well as grave robbery, assault and battery, contempt of court, and nineteen summary offenses, according to court records.

Finlayson was sent to Havana Prison in lieu of bail.
