41-year-old man who spat at police officers in attempt to infect them with Corona virus is jailed
A man who deliberately coughed on two police officers in an attempt to infect them with Coronavirus has been jailed.
41-year-old Michael Gray was sentenced to 19 weeks in prison after he admitted assaulting an emergency services worker and using threatening words and behavior following an incident in Brixton last Thursday.
Two patrol officers had approached the defendant as he appeared to be harassing three women, Scotland Yard said.
When they checked his details, they found he was wanted on a warrant for failing to appear at Croydon Magistrates’ Court, police said.
On his arrest, Gray intentionally coughed towards the officers and, while in custody, he threatened to spit at them. He stated that he hoped to infect them with COVID-19 so that they would pass it on to their children.
At a hearing before Croydon magistrates, Gray was given eight weeks for the assault on police officers and 11 weeks for a separate drug driving offense.
