Chris Collins Attacks Soda Machine With Hachet In Attempt to Rescue Person He Thought Was Trapped Inside
Idaho is not looking too good this week. First there was the guy who bit his roommate's nose off during a fight. Now there's the case of Chris Collins, a 47-year-old Boise man who may have mistaken the doctor of Dr. Pepper fame for an actual M.D.
On Sunday night, Boise cops got a call about a man at a motel with a hatchet. When they arrived, police found a beat-up soda dispenser and a distraught Collins, who told the authorities he'd gone all Paul Bunyan on the poor vending machine because he was trying to rescue a person he thought was stuck inside.
Needless to say there was no one trapped in the machine. And when cops went to Collins' room they found a plausible explanation for his delusions.
Collins is now charged with possession of meth and drug paraphernalia and malicious injury to property. He's also accused of being a really shitty first responder, as the motel sodas he tried to free remain imprisoned in their glass cage.
