WEIRD NEWS: Massive Flatulence Nets Massive Fine
An Austrian man is looking forward to his day in court to fight a ticket he was issued for a "massive flatulence."
Police in Vienna say they stopped the man and sat him down on a bench while they checked his identification. That's when they claim he did the one-cheek sneak and blasted a loud fart in the officers' direction. The accused was handed a ticket for 500 euros (about $571), which he argues is unjustified.
The police defended the citation, saying, "Of course, nobody is put on the spot if one slips out by accident... [He] slightly raised himself from the bench, looked at the officers and patently, in a completely deliberate way, emitted a massive flatulence in their immediate proximity."
