Can't foil breathalyser with feces
By CP
TORONTO -- An accused drunk driver tried but failed to foil a police breathalyser after stuffing his mouth full of feces. "I don't think alcohol alone would make you do something as disgusting as that," South Simcoe Police Insp. Tom McDonald said.
"I've never heard of anything like this before," said the 28-year police veteran.
Arrested Sunday after his Ford pickup was pulled over on a highway just outside Barrie, Ont., the 59-year-old driver was loaded into a cruiser and taken to a police station for testing.
En route, Sgt. James Buchanan said the prisoner vomited, urinated and defecated in the rear of the squad car.
After arriving at the station, he said the man grabbed a handful of his own waste "and placed it in his mouth, attempting to trick the breathalyser machine."
It didn't work, Buchanan said.
He alleged the machine registered two readings of intoxication from samples the suspect provided. Both were more than twice the legal limit.
The motorist was charged with impaired driving, plus driving with more than 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood in his system. He was released on a promise to appear in a Bradford, Ont., court on May 12.
South Simcoe Police do not identify people they charge.

Name the idiot
I really don't understand police departments who refuse to reveal the names of people they charge. This guy needs to be publically humiliated by name. That way people can point and laugh, and learn from his mistakes.
If there are no consequences, everyone would be eating their feces.
