Smack My Head!

According to investigators, Danny Hollis Jr., 35, broke into a Nashville, Tenn., home and terrorized the family there. “This man walks in,” recounted Lt. Melinda Brewer. “The family is all in there, minding their own business.” The man isn’t wearing a stitch of clothing and “says the dog is looking at him. He grabs a knife and he cuts his throat. He goes upstairs and jumps out a window, after busting his head on the glass of the front door and then he takes off running.” Hollis jumped onto a gazebo in the back yard and ran across a field, where deputies were able to catch up to him, and arrest him after he smacked his head on the pavement. Hollis allegedly admitted to smoking “wasp” — a mixture of meth and crystalized bug spray that Brewer says is worse than bath salts, causing psychotic episodes. Hollis said he couldn’t remember anything he did. (MS/WKRN Nashville) ...A few more doses and he won’t have to remember his years behind bars, either.
