Police face many different things ranging from gory to disgusting every day. However, this cop in Missouri could not withstand Sean Sykes Jr.'s farts according to the court documents. 

Sykes, a 24-year-old man from Kansas City, was arrested in September for illegal gun and drug possession and was getting questioned by a detective. Whenever he was asked a question, instead of answering, Sykes farted. The detective could take the stinky answers no longer and had to lead the room. The officer wrote his account with Sykes in his report, "Mr. Sykes continued to be flatulent and I ended the interview." 

The details of the very stinky interview emerged after Sykes was arrested again in early November. He is now facing two separate federal charges of illegal possession of firearm and drugs from September and November.

He initially denied the ownership of the firearm and drugs he was in possession of in September, however, since he was arrested again, he will be fully accounted for both arrests. 

He is formally charged with the federal charges including the possession of stolen firearm offenses and possession with intent to sell cocaine.
