Farting is Illegal?

Post by genlock »

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- As if getting a DUI wasn’t enough, a man arrested for driving under the influence got in a lot more trouble at the police station.

Police stopped Jose Cruz on Route 60 in South Charleston Monday night for driving with his headlights off.

Then, he failed sobriety tests and was arrested.

When police were trying to get fingerprints, police say Cruz moved closer to the officer and passed gas on him. The investigating officer remarked in the criminal complaint that the odor was very strong.

Cruz is now charged with battery on a police officer, as well as DUI and obstruction.

That's funny. This should make national news before the day is over.

South Charleston Police need to learn how to deal with real issues.

A Philly cop was (according to one rumor) shot 18 times while trying to make an arrest.

Official reports say two to the torso and one round to the face.

Haha... Good segment.

:lol:

What's amazing is this "issue" will likely be seriously debated.

You can't make this stuff up.
