Well, if they were going to let him off with just a warning, it seems rather improbable now.
Anthony J. Hopkins is in deep shit after he spit blood in a police officer’s face and told him he had Hepatitis C during his latest arrest. Saying he was going to kill the officer and his family probably won’t help the situation either.
According to The Indy Channel, the 27-year-old Indiana man has been charged with two misdemeanors and two felonies as a result of his actions, including battery by bodily waste.
Police were originally responding to a fight at 5:30 in the morning on April 12 and were told by witnesses that Hopkins had fled the scene. After K-9 officers found him hiding in the basement of a nearby house, their human counterparts moved in to throw cuffs on him.
But Hopkins fought the arresting officers “tooth and nail” and eventually spit blood into one cop’s face and mouth, at which point he told him:
Fuck you, I hope you die. I hope you get Hep C and give it to your wife and kids. Once I get out of here, I’m going to kill you and your family.
While his .16 BAC revealed he was hammered, it’s still unclear if Hopkins really has Hep C. What is clear, however, is that he’s a huge asshole.
