As she was being transported to jail, a Florida woman became “irate” and kicked another female detainee in the face after the victim “‘farted’ near her,” police allege.
Jeanelle Callahan, 48, was busted Thursday afternoon after she punched her male roommate in the face, according to an arrest affidavit. Callahan, who was reportedly “highly intoxicated,” left the man with a bloody nose.
Following that misdemeanor collar, Callahan was placed into a jail transport, where she encountered Virginia Turner, 60, who had been arrested for trespassing. Both women were handcuffed in the police vehicle.
En route to the county lockup, “the suspect claimed that Virginia Turner ‘farted’ near her,” reported Officer Stephen Zulauf. Callahan became “irate” and attempted to strike Turner in the face with her elbow. Callahan then “raised her right leg and kicked Virginia Turner’s right side of her face.”
Turner did not fight back during the attack, which was recorded by the vehicle’s camera system.
Callahan, who was already facing a battery rap for punching her roomie, was hit with a second battery count for attacking Turner. She is locked up in the county jail on $1000 bond. Turner was released from custody Friday afternoon.

An apparently extremely arachnophobic Detroit man apparently has a touch of pyromania to boot, proven when he used a lighter to burn a spider crawling on his car's gas tank -- and sparking a huge gas station fireball in the process.
The incident happened last week at a Mobil station in Center Line, Michigan, but video of the explosive situation has just surfaced, according to WJBK-TV.
The video from the Fox affiliate shows the driver flicking his Bic, then panicking as fire burst from his car to the nearby gas pump.
Station worker Susan Adams quickly hit the cut-off switch to the tank and another used a fire extinguisher to snuff the blaze before the fire department responded to his 911 call.
Apparently, the driver tried to blame the blaze on static discharge from his car, but later came clean to investigators.
Thanks to Adams' quick actions, the only casualty was the spider.

Police in Modena, Italy have busted a two-year-long string of thefts of nearly 900 thousand dollars' worth of the region's most famous export: Parmesan cheese.
According to the Italian language newspaper Il Sole 24, like some kind of gastronomic Ocean's Eleven, 11 suspects were arrested, accused of using high-tech electronic gear to surveil targets and kill alarms in order to get their hands on more than 2 thousand wheels of the cheese.
And lest their preferred haul seem downright, well, cheesy, ABC's Megan Williams in Rome explained that the hard-hit region's wares are so valued that they're often held in bank vaults, and used as collateral by the cheese's producers.
