‘How do you like that?’

A man has been spared jail time in the UK after he farted in the general direction of police during a strip search.

Stuart Cook, 28, received a community sentence when he appeared in court for drugs offences after he was stopped by police.

Metro reports that officers confronted the man after they suspected he was smoking cannabis at the side of the road following a crash at the Lang Stract in Aberdeen.

A Judge heard that Mr. Cook became irate as he was handcuffed and started shouting at police.

He continued to vent on his way to Kittybrewster police station, screaming expletives and ‘puffing out his chest towards officers’.

At the station he was strip searched and asked to bend over.

He then deliberately broke wind saying to officers: ‘How do you like that?’

Cook, from Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire, admitted to possession of cannabis and to behaving in a threatening or abusive manner by shouting and screaming aggressively, displaying aggressive body language, making a lewd remark towards police and ‘intentionally flatulating’ in the direction of police.

He has been ordered to carry out 75 hours of unpaid work.
