Yahoo! News - S.C. Teen Arrested for Spitting in Coffee: "Fri Feb 4, 9:40 PM ET
ROCK HILL, S.C. - A doughnut shop employee has been arrested after police say he spit into an officer's coffee.
Detectives think Chad Patrick Stalnaker, 19, of Fort Mill spit into the coffee before it was handed to Sgt. Keith Dugan in the drive-thru window at a Dunkin Donuts store earlier this month.
Dugan, a veteran Rock Hill police officer, was on duty and driving a marked patrol car at the time.
Dugan got the coffee on his way to the doctor's office for a checkup, so he took it with him and removed the lid to take his first sip as he sat in the waiting room. He noticed a substance floating in the cup.
It turned out to be a mixture of mucus and saliva, police say.
The cup has been sent to the State Law Enforcement Division for testing, said Lt. Jerry Waldrop.
On Monday, police arrested Stalnaker and charged him with misdemeanor assault and battery in connection with the incident.
A Dunkin Donuts manager said Stalnaker is no longer employed at the shop. "
