A Hudson Valley homeowner says a neighbor attacked her lawn display, three inflatable ghosts and a pumpkin, then apparently smashed his head through her window in a pre-Halloween rage she finds mystifying.State Police said officers found a drunken John Odee, 43, inside Dawn Garcia's house in the town of Lloyd on Thursday night, arrested him after a brief struggle and charged him with burglary. He was sent to Ulster County Jail with bail set at $25,000.
Garcia told the Middletown Times Herald-Record she heard hollering and swearing and looked outside to see Odee struggling with the inflatable decoration. "He was enraged. I could see that," she said.
When she yelled at him to go away, Odee charged the house. She fled through the back door with three of her children and heard window glass breaking. She called 911 from another neighbor's house. Police said Odee used his head to smash a window to get in.
