Man charged with Halloween siege of neighbor's house, lawn ornament
October 12, 2007Highland — This Halloween trick ended up with the suspect behind bars.
An intoxicated man attacked his neighbor's inflatable Halloween lawn decoration and then used his head to smash a window to get inside the home Thursday night, according to state police in Highland.
Dawn Garcia said she could hear hollering and swearing outside her home on Kisor Road Thursday night. She spotted her neighbor, John Odee, struggling with the inflatable decoration of three ghosts and a pumpkin.
"He was enraged. I could see that," Garcia said.
When she yelled at him to go away, she said Odee started running toward the house. As she and three of her children scrambled to get out the back door, she heard the window glass breaking.
She called 911 from a neighbor's house, and state police and Town of Lloyd police arrived to find Odee inside the house. They took him into custody after a brief struggle.
