Police: Mobile man defecated in patrol car, threw feces at officers

Kendal Benjamin, 32, was arrested on Tuesday after police officers responded to a domestic violence call. However, it was what happened after Benjamin was placed into custody that is making headlines.

Per Fox 10, the Mobile Police Department on Wednesday told local media outlets that Benjamin “slipped his handcuffs” while being transported to jail.

He then reportedly proceeded to defecate and threw feces on the officers inside the patrol car.

Benjamin reportedly caused damage to the vehicle, as well.

Per Mobile County jail records, he now faces an assault with bodily fluids charge in addition to the original charges for which he was arrested: domestic violence assault in the third degree and criminal mischief in the second degree. Benjamin also faces a felony probation violation for each charge.
