ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Police in Georgia have arrested a man for allegedly causing a stink at a bar.

The Athens Banner-Herald reports that a woman told officers Blake Leland Zengo, 20, of Bogart, sprayed her in the face with a product designed to smell like flatulence.

An Athens-Clarke County police report says several people left the bar Saturday, citing a foul smell inside, and then told police that Zengo was the culprit.

The police report described Zengo as “very inebriated” and said a bottle of spray designed to cause an offensive odor was found in his pants pocket. Zengo denied spraying anything.

He was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, public intoxication and underage consumption of alcohol. He was released from jail on $1,500 bond.

It’s unclear whether Zengo has an attorney.
