Sounds like the officer was a little overzealous. I confess, as a copper for the last 23 years, I have occasionally "roasted" a
"back seat passenger" with a few methane emissions. I never fail to giggle as I do so.

I've been on the receiving end of some farts that I would consider attempted murder. This guy got off easy.

I wish I could charge MY batteries by farting on them. I would not be lacking in well-charged batteries.
