Man Goes On Drug-Fueled Rampage In The West Village, Police Say

WEST VILLAGE, NY — A man went on a drug-fueled rampage at a West Village apartment building early Thursday morning, police said.

The man stumbled into 32 Washington Square just after midnight and got into an argument with a person in the lobby. Things took a violent turn when the enraged man smashed a lobby window worth $250 and flailed a sharp object at the individual he was arguing with, a police spokesman said.

He managed to flee the scene before officers responded. No injures were reported.

Police believe the man was on drugs at the time and an investigation is ongoing.
