The following event being parsed as single event. I'm trying to break the event into multiple events

Sample data

------------------- CommonMessageInput ----------------

It's been a minute since I've been a splunk admin, so fairly rusty here....but I think you might want something like this in your props.  

[your_sourcetype]
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 25
TIME_FORMAT = %Y.%m.%d - %H:%M:%S.%3N
TIME_PREFIX = Timestamp:
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
LINE_BREAKER = ([\r\n]+)(?=-{10})
