A glue huffing man ended up sleeping in the cells after allegedly punching a patrol car yesterday.
Sergeant Matt Lee, of Dunedin, said police located a man outside the Dunedin Central Police Station at 7pm yesterday huffing glue.
Police gave the man a lift to the Night Shelter, however, he was turned away due to overstaying his five days.
While officers were arranging alternative accomodation for the man he allegedly became aggressive and punched the back window of the patrol car.
There was no damage to the patrol car, however the man was arrested and was charged with disorderly behaviour likely to cause violence.
He will appear in court this morning.
