A man who went to hospital complaining of toothache bit the arm of a policeman who was trying to help him and taunted the officer that he had a blood-borne disease, a court has heard.
Andrew Williams then defecated in his police cell and smeared the mess on the walls before writing his nickname, Spud, in the faeces.
Hannah George, prosecuting, told Swansea Crown Court that on July 12 last year 41-year-old Williams went to Neath Port Talbot Hospital complaining of toothache. When staff said they were unable to help him he went outside, took a large quantity of unknown tablets, and lay down in the middle of the road. When he refused to move the police were called.
