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.

This reminds me of an incident from a few years back, where two people cracking lawyer jokes on the sidewalk outside of a courthouse (while waiting in line at a hot dog stand) so mortally offended a prosecutor behind them in line, the prosecutor had them dragged into the building by a bailiff, hauled in front of a judge, and jailed for contempt of court.
