And one night, he got out of bed and shot at a guard, still asleep.
The American Weekly reported that he was diagnosed with homicidal somnambulism, caused by overstraining his mind, and that he spent the remaining 50 years of his life on a farm, sleeping in a room with bars, under police supervision.
