Man nicked for throwing snowball at police

[Snograt]

Quite funny tbh. It does say that he had been quite aggressive because of a grude.

Understandable. Those damned grudes make my blood boil.

The kind of guy who throws a snowball at police (take THAT authority) is probably guilty of other stuff, or at the very least for being a tool.

seconded.

I think most people with half a brain would think that throwing a snowball at the police is not the best idea.

Lucky it wasn't a riot shield

Dean’s a right nose picker:

"I'll have to be careful when I'm picking my nose in future - I'll get done for littering if I flick it on the floor."

Prosecutors however claimed that Smith had been acting aggressively because of a grudge and pointed out he had previously been convicted for obstructing a police officer.

thug...

Maybe the police didn't want to have snowballs thrown at them. I don't understand the mindset that because it has snowed it's ok to throw frozen water at anyone and everyone.

This. Fair enough if you're in a snowball fight where people all want to be there, but not at police who are trying to do their job. Pretty sure I wouldn't want snowballs thrown at me while I'm working!

This is pretty local to me so it came up when it actually happened months ago, and even then the Telegraph reported without many of the facts that made it seem (like this does) at face value a pointless waste. Unless you actually delve deeper it's only ever going to be cue shock/outrage/waste of tax.

His 'official' original story was that he threw a snowball at a shop (he was banned from because he was caught stealing) and it accidently hit the PSCO.

At first he'd said his five year old son had thrown it, and then threatened the other officer with a "I'll be seeing you" remark.

Lightweight crime sure, but 'innocent'? Not by a long throw.

It was PCSO ? thats even more of a waste of tax payers money, they aren't even real cops !!!!

LOL If he had thrown it at this cop we would have been reading his obituary.

Surprise surprise beneath the surface of a Britain Gone PC Mad story is the truth... the guys a nob and the police were right to do it.

But it's no wonder the country believes things are bad, becasue every day we're battered with these stories without relent.

An anonymous grown man (by himself) fired a snowball at my girlfriend when she was walking home alone from work during the recent bad weather there.

Some people are just odd and need a good kicking.

He was after some pasty I reckon.

Yes. That's proportionate.

Must remember that one the next time I'm single.

was she covered in the white stuff when she came home ? he may have hit it.

We don't live together. Oh oh. Maybe her story was some sort of innuendo.


..A rather original one at that, albeit.
