Pictured is West Virginia resident Jose Cruz. Jose had a tough week. He was driving with his headlights off and was pulled over by the 5-O. It appeared to officers that Jose was three sheets to the wind so a sobriety test was administered. Jose failed. Off to the clink.While being fingerprinted, Jose thought it would be really funny to horse around with the officers. Little scamp that he is, Jose "lifted his leg and passed gas loudly on Ptlm. Parsons. The defendant then fanned the air with his hand in front of his rear onto the officer." Hilarious. What law enforcement officer doesn't enjoy some good old farty hijinks?
Jose admitted to the fart and told reporters he said, "Here, put that in your Breathalyzer!" Again, hilarious.
Jose posted bail and is facing misdemeanor charges.

This would make a fantastic "The More You Know" PSA. And how great is it that "The gas was very odorous and created contact of an insulting or provoking nature with Ptlm. Parsons" appeared on an official police report?
Seriously, though, farting counts as battery now? How soon will it be before Congress passes the "Smelt It Dealt It Act" then?
