DECATUR â Police said a 28-year-old Decatur man told them he was âtripping on shroomsâ when he walked into a convenience store and stole the ownerâs van after grabbing the ignition keys off the shop counter.
A sworn affidavit released Wednesday quotes the man as blaming his behavior partly on the effects of the hallucinogenic mushrooms and also because he was angry at the store owner, for unspecified reasons, and wanted to âget back at them.â
The 34-year-old owner of the Wood Plaza Mart at 1207 E. Wood St. is quoted as telling Decatur police the theft happened Feb. 26. He said the man had come into the store, looked around without buying anything, and left.
