As 12:25 this morning, an officer stopped 34-year-old Lance Goodman for traveling 55 in a 25 MPH zone, on Hillsboro Road near Claude Yates Drive. The officer determined that Goodman was impaired and arrested him.

During his arrest, Goodman became irate and began cursing at officers. Once in handcuffs, Goodman “inhaled deeply” and intentionally spit on the police officer.
