A man who was charged with aggressive driving got into a confrontation with the judge, the court clerk and deputies when he appeared in court. The man became agitated and had to be removed from the courtroom during an arraignment hearing. A deputy spoke with him and calmed him down enough to go back inside. Then, while addressing a Gwinnett County Recorder's Court judge, the man became argumentative again. He cursed at the clerk, telling her to "keep your stupid comments to yourself." Deputies placed the man in a holding cell on a disorderly conduct charge, at which point he began resisting commands to remove his steel-toed boots. He got into a scuffle and bit a deputy's thumb. The deputies warned the man to stop fighting. When he wouldn't simmer down, they stunned him with a Taser. He stopped fighting.

Pharmacy on wheels

A police officer patrolling I-85 northbound at Sugarloaf Parkway stopped a car for speeding. As the driver was fishing around for his license, the car began rolling forward. The officer yelled at the driver to turn the car off and throw the keys out the window. The driver apologized, saying he forgot the car was in drive. When asked if he had been drinking, the driver replied, "No sir, I am a doctor," further explaining he was a pharmacist. The man gave permission to search the car. Inside was a small lunchbox on the passenger's seat containing 32 Xanax pills, 29 hydrocodone pills, 24 Lortab pills and six fat-burning diet pills. (Xanax is an anti-anxiety medication, while hydrocodone and Lortab are prescription painkillers). The man was arrested for having controlled substances outside prescription bottles, reckless driving, speeding and driving with an expired license.

Clumsy crook

Television, the root of all evil?

A Lawrenceville man called 911 after his wife attacked him at their home. When an officer arrived, he noticed a large bruise forming on the side of the man's face. The man said he was watching television in his bedroom when his wife came upstairs and yelled that he was lazy. She threw a large bottle of water at him and struck him in the face. She broke a nightstand, took the drawers out of it and threw one of the drawers at her husband. The man cut his hand when he tried to block the drawer. The wife also grabbed a screwdriver and scratched her husband on the back with it. She admitted to the assault and was arrested.

That's not air freshener, man
