http://i44.tinypic.com/2ele2pi.jpgA Shawnee man wearing only pajama bottoms allegedly attacked three women, dove through a window and cut himself with glass shards when cornered by police.
Johnson County prosecutors charged Jack B. Holtzen, 24, with 10 counts that included assaults on police, burglaries, batteries and criminal threats.
The incidents began about 7 p.m. after the man smoked marijuana and possibly other substances, police said, and left his apartment in the 6500 block of Hedge Lane Terrace.http://www.kansascity.com/115/story/1055244.htmlPolice said the man, identified as 24-year-old Jack Holtzen, first attacked a woman in her late 40's as she was walking home to her apartment. The woman said Holtzen came running down the sidewalk and "clothes-lined" her, knocking her down, then dragged her a few feet from the sidewalk and began hitting her in the head, chest and sides.
When the woman screamed for help, Holtzen ran away to the building at 6504 Hedge Lane Terrace and crashed through the window of a ground floor apartment. Inside the apartment, he began choking another woman in her late 40's, threatening to kill her. He left her and went into another room in the apartment, where the woman's mother was watching her 2-year-old son.
Holtzen began choking the woman's mother, screaming profanities, before releasing her. He ran outside, where he encountered several neighbors responding to the victims' cries for help. The neighbors subdued the man and held him for police.
As officers arrived, Holtzen was able to free himself from the neighbors and ran back into the second victim's apartment, attempting to jump through another window, shattering it.
Officers used a Taser in attempt to get the suspect to surrender, but the Taser did not work properly. Holtzen took a shard of glass from the window and began stabbing himself in the chest and neck before officers tackled him and were able to handcuff him.
Officers bandaged Holtzen until an ambulance arrived, and he was taken to an area hospital where he underwent surgery for his self-inflicted stab wounds. None of the victims required medical treatment.http://www.shawneedispatch.com/news/2009/feb/25/man-attacks-three-shawnee-apartment-complex/
