CLEVELAND, Ohio – Five dollars was all it took to set a man on a knife-wielding rage Thursday on the city’s West Side, according to a police report.

The report, filed by Cleveland Police second district officers, said four men started drinking and playing card games Wednesday evening at their home in the 2000 block of West 45th Street. About 11 p.m., a man known to them only as “Manuel” showed up and joined the party.

One of the men admitted to police that he had bought drugs off Manuel before, and had purchased a "dime bag" - typically a $10 bag of marijuana - from him Wednesday night, the report said. Manuel stayed at the home, drinking all night with the men.

Trouble came about 5:45 p.m. Thursday, when Manuel “became very irate because he thought someone at the party had stolen $5 from him,” the report said.

Manuel suddenly stood up from the chair he had been sitting in and started yelling at the men, demanding his $5 back.

He then pulled out a black-handled knife with a razor blade at the top and forced them into a bedroom, according to the report. The men told police Manuel then forced them to strip naked, and rifled through their pockets, looking for his $5.

He did not find it.

Manuel then left the room “and started running around the house,” at which point one of the men was able to escape through the back door and call police, the report said.

The other three men put their clothes back on and went into the dining room, in an attempt to calm Manuel down – instead, Manuel began chasing them through the house, swinging the knife around repeating “I’m going to kill you if you don’t give me what you owe me,” according to the report.

One of the men eventually calmed Manuel down, talking him into taking the keys to the victim’s 2007 Pontiac G6. Manuel did, and fled.

Police said the men were unable to provide a last name for Manuel or a phone number. No arrest had been made.
