Patriots' Chandler Jones' strange behavior detailed in police report - More details in the increasingly strange Chandler Jones saga have emerged. The Boston Globe reported that the Patriots defensive end seemed to be seeking help when he arrived at Foxboro's police station on Sunday morning.

A police report prepared on Thursday noted that “It was evident that the individual was looking for help and assistance," and moved toward the police-only entrance in a hurried fashion.

At the station, a shirtless Jones got down on his knees and placed his interlocked hands behind his head, as if surrendering. Then, moving toward the ground, his body language portrayed that of prayer. At no time did he appear resistant. He was evaluated, then taken to the hospital for medical attention.

Officer David J. Foscaldo wrote in the report that “It was quite evident that Mr. Jones was desperately seeking our assistance, and he had certainly not committed any crimes — nor had he violated any laws or town bylaws,’’ Foscaldo wrote, adding that Jones was escorted to the fire department and its trained EMTs. "It was a medical issue and it was certainly a police matter,’" Foscaldo added in his report, according to the Globe.

Jones suffered a severe reaction to synthetic marijuana, which led to his venture to the police station near his home.

According to the National Institute on Drug abuse, the man-made substance, referred to as synthetic cannabinoids, are "unregulated psychoactive (mind-altering) substances that have become newly available on the market and are intended to copy the effects of illegal drugs" and can cause extreme anxiety, confusion, paranoia and hallucinations. All of which correlate with Jones's police station behavior.

The Boston Herald noted that the officers noticed an odor of "burnt marijuana" when investigating Jones' home.

There is no definitive punishment, if he does in fact receive it, as of yet.
