..I came across this little nugget, so to speak, at trainee solicitors’ website Roll On Friday:
A man has been charged with battery after deliberately farting at a police officer. Jose Antonio Cruz was stopped for drink driving and taken back to the local police station. When officers tried to get him to take a breath test, Cuz apparently lifted his leg and let out a huge fart. He then wafted the smell towards them. Police say the sheer smell “created a contact of an insulting or provoking nature” and charged him with battery.
I see. Floating arse biscuits can be a weapon, too. I wonder, could one be charged with going equipped for carrying a concealed can of beans?
