That level of aggression, plus the fact that after appearing catatonic he became assaultive again.
PCP once metabolised and excreted via the hepatic route undergoes enterohepatic recirculation, causing symptoms to return after disappearing.
Thats my guess anyway

LSD is a hallucinogen which presents with hallucinations,synesthisias etc..,
PCP acts on Glutamate receptors and its axn are all the SE of Ketamine(Anger,combativeness etc..,)
