A DRUNK man who was being charged for DUI has landed himself an extra assault charge after he cheekily passed gas on the police officer.

According to a criminal complaint, Jose Cruz intentionally passed gas on an officer who was processing him for arrest.

Paperwork from the arrest shows Cruz was originally pulled over for driving without headlights. He failed a field sobriety test and was brought back to the police station, where he was given a breathalyzer test and was fingerprinted.

That's when police say Cruz "lifted his leg and passed gas loudly on (Patrolman) Parsons... then fanned the air with his hand in front of his rear."

Between this action and several struggles with handcuffs, Cruz ended up with a battery on a police officer charge, two counts of obstruction, plus a DUI and a driving without headlights charge. His bond was $5,000
