Iowa City police arrest ‘bored,’ pantless man on acid trying to get into neighbor’s house for sex

IOWA CITY — A 'bored' and pantless Iowa City man, fueled by four tabs of the hallucinogenic acid and reportedly making little sense, tried to get into a neighbor's house for sex early Friday morning, according to Iowa City police reports.

Phillip Antonio Michael Lopes-Round, 18, admitted to police he had consumed four acid tablets, which caused him to go to a woman's house, remove his pants and underwear, and knock on her door in hopes of asking his neighbor to have sex with him, according to police reports.

The man claimed 'everything in life was boring' along with everything else, and was saying 'random things that did not make sense,' according to police.

Lopes-Round was yelling for the woman to let him inside the residence and he continued screaming while damaging her property, according to police.

Lopes-Round ripped the mail box from the post and broke the house number and a light hanging above the number, police say they were told by the woman. The damage is estimated at $100.

Police took Lopes-Round to the Mercy Iowa City emergency room, where he began yelling and lunged at a doctor headfirst when hospital staff tried to put him in a hospital gown due to the fact he did not have any pants on, according to the police report.

Lopes-Round was charged with fifth degree criminal mischief, assault on a person in certain occupations, disorderly conduct, and simulated public intoxication.
