Man Sprays Deodorant In His Mouth To Cover The Smell Of Alcohol To Escape From Police
South Carolina authorities say a man sprayed Axe body spray in his mouth to cover the smell of alcohol as deputies approached during a traffic stop. Spartanburg sheriff&rsquos deputies stopped the 49-year-old Efren Mencia-Ramirez on Saturday night for checking. He was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving after failing multiple field sobriety tests.
Police all around the world have been yelling themselves hoarse asking people not to drive drunk. Ever heard of cabs?
Well, this guy was determined (read: stupid enough) to drive despite being heavily drunk. And to avoid being fined for this, he did something monumentally stupid.

The incident report says that there was a 12-pack of beer on the floor of the car and 10 were nearly empty. The report says Mencia-Ramirez had an open bottle between his legs too. He was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving after failing multiple field sobriety tests.
