LANCASTER COUNTY, Pa. — Police say a Stevens man is facing charges after he destroyed his home and spit on an officer in East Cocalico Township.

On September 9, police were dispatched to a home on the 100 block of East Church Street for a disturbance.

When police arrived at the scene, 55-year-old Timothy Hauck's two roommates told police that Hauk, who has a history of drug use, was naked and destroying their home.
