Now that’s using your head!
Joe Cummings is a special kind of drunk. The 36-year-old man is the kind of drunk who likes to put others at risk by drunk driving. But he’s also the kind of drunk who will do harm to himself, if that’s what it takes. So when he was pulled over on Saturday night, after being suspected of DUI, that’s just what he did.
Specifically, those head wounds he got are the result of him bashing his head, repeatedly, into the hood of a cop car. Said a police captain:
He broke free, he bolted and lunged himself head first onto the hood of the squad car and then began to ram his face repeatedly with a great amount of force into the hood.
His wife says that Cummings lost his job earlier in the day. Head-butting a cop car might not be the best thing to do when you’re suddenly in a bad economic situation. Not only does Cummings now have likely medical bills, but he caused over $1,000 worth of damage to the patrol car (!), and you can bet that’s coming out of his pocket too.
