A violent drink driver vomited on the street before lashing out and kicking a police officer.
Craig Scott came to the attention of constables when they spotted him travelling in his transit van along roads in North Tyneside. The 41-year-old was then seen to pull his vehicle over, get out and throw up all over the ground, a court heard.
Officers approached the roof inspector and arrested him after they noticed he was drunk. But Scott took exception to being put in a police van and transported to Middle Engine Lane Police Station, where he turned aggressive and kicked a constable in the thigh, prosecutors said.
