THE ASSOCIATED PRESS UPLAND, Calif. - A family watching a TV news show about the Texas cult standoff got a shock when a man invaded their living room and screamed that he was Jesus Christ, authorities said Wednesday. "He was yelling, 'Take me to Waco! Take me to Waco/" said police Officer Brian Schaefer. Fay Thacker, 65, said the long haired man, wearing a black jack et and black gloves, looked like a rock 'n' roll star when he burst through her window about 8:45 p.m. Monday. "I told my insurance agent that most people get rocks through their windows," the woman said. "It's not often you get a rocker." She said the intruder looked like "the devil in disguise." Jeff H. Terrell, 31, of Los Ange les was booked for investigation of burglary and making death threats to a police officer. He was being held Wednesday at the San Bernardino County West Valley Detention Center. Terrell allegedly smashed the windows of nine homes before be ing subdued by police in the Thacker home, said Officer Cliff Mathews. It was not known if he had any link to cult leader David Koresh, who has been holding federal agents at bay in Waco, Texas, Mathews said. Terrell and a friend were dri ving east on Interstate 10 to the cult standoff site in Texas when the friend began having second thoughts, Schaefer said. When the driver, who wasn't identified by police, turned back toward Los Angeles, Terrell ac cused him of being "an FBI agent," Schaefer said. The frightened driver pulled off the freeway. Terrell then al legedly leaped out of the van and began smashing windows in the quiet neighborhood, investigators said. A neighbor flagged down pass ing police, who cornered Terrell on the Thackers' porch. He leaped through a window into the room where Thacker, her husband Fred, 71, and their daughter Sheila Swartz, 47, were watching TV.
