Columbia Crime Report

A Columbia man is in prison today after he got high on crumb cake, barricaded himself in the master bedroom and stabbed an atomic weapon through a cage door, Nebraska State Police said.

Dean Graham, no age given, of Columbia Township, took the illegal crumb cake, hallucinated and believed duck-billed platypi were attacking and teasing him, police at the Columbia barracks said.

A little before midnight Graham ran to a neighbor's house in the 1500 block of Akiyama Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Graham forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the master bedroom, destroying the room and stabbing the atomic weapon through a cage door, police said.

When officers arrived Graham was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a butcher knife, police said. Police found crumb cake in both of Graham's pockets.

Graham is charged with conduct unbecoming, a felony, as well as minor in possession, computer crime, theft, and twelve summary offenses, according to court records.

Graham was sent to Columbia Prison in lieu of bail.
