A man in West Virginia was arrested Friday for allegedly huffing spray paint and then beating his mother with a spatula, according to local news reports.
Glenn Casdorph — a 30-year-old who's reportedly known to local authorities for sniffing spray paint — was taken into custody after St. Albans police responded to reports of a domestic incident around 10:45 p.m. on Thursday, WCHS-TV reported, citing a criminal complaint.
When an officer arrived at the scene, Casdorph was reportedly sitting in the front yard with his face and hands covered in spray paint, holding a large steel bar.

Online records indicate Casdorph is being held at the South Central Regional Jail in Charleston on $10,000 bail or 10 percent cash bond.
