Three people in Colorado were arrested, and the police are searching for a fourth after they allegedly kidnapped and brutally assaulted one of their roommates.

The victim, a 45-year-old, ended up at Saint Anthony’s Medical Center in Lakewood, where he told sheriff’s deputies about the incident.

According to reports, the man had been living with his roommates for a few weeks before the attack. He said he overheard them plotting to harm him while he was in the basement bedroom. To escape the possible confrontation, he tried to crawl out of a window. When he could not get out, he blocked the door hoping to shield himself from potential harm. The man’s roommates were able to open the door, and they were allegedly holding airsoft-style guns loaded with rock salt. They reportedly began shooting at him before beginning the alleged physical assault.

A prison employee who brought a bowl of frozen lasagna to work was arrested when cocaine and marijuana were allegedly found hidden in between the layers of the pasta dish.

On the morning of July 3, a 46-year-old woman who has worked as a nursing assistant at the Indiana State Prison for over two decades headed to the facility for her shift. When she walked in, she was carrying a bowl of frozen lasagna. When entering the prison, items must be scanned with an X-ray machine. It was reported that something was seen in the lasagna that caught the attention of the officer when he viewed the image. A second officer inspected it and reported that they agreed something didn’t seem right. When she was asked for consent, the woman said she had no problem with them searching through the food, which she said she got from one of her friends. She also gave them permission to search her cell phone.

The authorities reported that they discovered three packages wrapped in electrical tape were hidden in the lasagna. When they tested the contents, they reported that they positively identified 84 grams of cocaine and 49 grams of marijuana. They asked the woman about the drugs, and she said she had no idea anything illegal was in the food.
