Un hombre de Florida acusado de maltratar a su madre tosió y sopló sobre los oficiales de la Oficina del Sheriff en el Condado de Volusia que lo arrestaron, diciéndoles que “esperaba” que les diera coronavirus.
Los agentes acudieron al llamado de emergencia este domingo y llegaron al domicilio en que el hombre, identificado como Brent Smith, vive con su madre.
De acuerdo con el informe oficial, la madre de Smith dijo que su hijo la empujó varias veces, luego agarró un cuchillo de mantequilla y amenazó con matarla.
Cuando los agentes lo detuvieron, Smith de 46 años, los amenazó y luego tosió y les sopló desde la parte trasera de la patrulla, diciendo “Espero que mueras. Espero que agarres el corona. Espera el coronavirus, espero que te toque”, informó la oficina del sheriff.
