Assault With A Deadly Wet One

Local WV news website reports:



SOUTH 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.


Here is the Police Report
Highlights:
...Lifted his leg and passed gas loudly...The defendant then fanned the air with his hand in front of his rear...The gas was very odorous and created contact of an insulting or provoking nature.


The officer that filed this report must have been a woman. A man would have un-cuffed him, gave him a high five and let him go. Stating, "Classic!, I think we're done here." while snickering and shoulder punching the guy on the way out.
