The last thing that  Ivan "Skip" Mallas of FERGUS FALLS, Minn thought about Sunday morning was being confronted by "The Soul Collector". But that is exactly what happened. I am not sure what I would when somebody came to collect my soul. When your time is up your time is up but I wouldn't be giving my soul up without a fight.

FERGUS FALLS, Minn. (CBS/AP) A Minnesota man who referred to himself as a "soul collector" and "medicine man" – and who allegedly tried to cut off his neighbor's toes and scalp – has been charged with attempted murder.

Timothy Eugene Peterson, 42, of Fergus Falls, was also charged with two counts of second degree assault in the bizarre incident.

According to the police complaint, Ivan "Skip" Mallas was working in his garage early Sunday morning when Peterson approached him with a knife and began chanting that he was a "soul collector" and a "medicine man."

Mallas told investigators that first Peterson went after his toes, then tried to slit his throat, scalp him and stab him in the chest, while telling Mallas that he needed to "collect his soul." He told police that Peterson may have been delusional and had possibly been drinking.
