A man in Scotland has been fined for trying to assault a female police officer with his genitals.
Marium Varinauskas, 28, attempted to hit the officer on the head when she was called out to his house during a domestic dispute last year, the Telegraph newspaper reports.
The constable, who cannot be named for legal reasons, arrived at the Lithuanian engineer's home in Aberdeen, north eastern Scotland, after his girlfriend called police because he was drunk, Aberdeen Sheriff Court heard.
When she entered Varinauskas's home, he was sitting on the sofa wearing nothing but his underpants.
Prosecutor Elaine Lynch told the court that Varinauskas launched his attack when the officer sat on a nearby couch to speak to him.
"The accused got to his feet and was standing over the police officer exposing (himself) .... forcing her to take evasive action to avoid getting struck," the Telegraph quoted Ms Lynch as saying.
Varinauskas was arrested and taken to a nearby police station in his underpants.
His lawyer, John Hardie, told the court Varinauskas had been drinking heavily and could not remember the incident.
"He apologises profusely and is extremely embarrassed," Mr Hardie said.
Varinauskas was fined $1000 by Sheriff Annella Cowan.
