Last updated on Monday, October 29, 2018

(BLOOMINGTON) - Bloomington Police Officers were called to a home in the 3200 block of South Walnut Springs Drive early Saturday morning after a man climbed into the attic of a common area outside of an apartment at 12:45 a.m.

Police say 33-year-old Philip Hebert was having hallucinations.

He first attempted to enter the apartment, but then decided to climb into the attic to hide from people he says were chasing him.

Bloomington Police Department Sgt. Robert Skelton says officers got the family out of the apartment to a safe area, before pulling the attic's ladder out and coaxing Hebert down.

Hebert was arrested on charges of criminal trespassing and public intoxication.
