An 18-year-old US student was arrested at her high school prom after she allegedly spewed a "bloody ball of spit" at a police officer during a drunken assault.
Police were called to North Ridgeville High School in Ohio at the weekend, where they had received complaints about "highly intoxicated" student Jessica Halter.
When police confronted her at the school, Halter allegedly replied:"This is my f***ing prom, this is bulls***."
According to a police report reproduced on The Smoking Gun website, Halter then denied drinking alcohol and swore at the school's principal.
"You are f***ing bitches, this is my prom, I'm not drunk," she continued.
Police said they told her she was under arrest for underage consumption of alcohol — prompting her to smack her head into a nearby chair.
"Halter began smacking her forehead into the chair handle causing her nose to bleed," the police report read.
Police placed handcuffs on her as she "began kicking, screaming spitting and thrashing about", according to the report.
They carried her outside, where she allegedly spewed a bloody gob of spit at one of the officers.
"Halter cleared her throat and spit a bloody ball of spit at [one of of us]," the report read.
During the drive back to the station Halter allegedly kicked the vehicle's window and "continued to spit blood on the windows, the divider, and the roof".
Halter was charged with assaulting a cop, resisting arrest, disorderly conduct, and underage drinking.
