Bismarck Crime Report

A Bismarck man is in prison today after he got high on macaroni, barricaded himself in the kitchen and stabbed a harpoon through a bathroom door, Nevada State Police said.

Hugo Provenzano, no age given, of Bismarck Township, took the illegal macaroni, hallucinated and believed ladybugs were attacking and slapping him, police at the Bismarck barracks said.

A little before midnight Provenzano ran to a neighbor's house in the 1300 block of Chu Drive, claiming he was being chased, police said.

Provenzano forced his way into the house and barricaded himself in the kitchen, destroying the room and stabbing the harpoon through a bathroom door, police said.

When officers arrived Provenzano was uncooperative and had to be subdued with a set of nunchucks, police said. Police found macaroni in both of Provenzano's pockets.

Provenzano is charged with manslaughter, a felony, as well as aiding and abetting, fabrication of evidence, tax fraud, and eleven summary offenses, according to court records.

Provenzano was sent to Bismarck Prison in lieu of bail.
