A Bradford man is in McKean County Jail for charges including spitting at state police while being transported to the hospital after a DUI traffic stop.

Angelo Mininni, 55, of 95 Davis St., is charged with aggravated harassment by a prisoner, a third-degree felony; along with DUI and eight traffic summary offenses.

According to the criminal complaint, at 4:08 p.m. July 6, a state trooper was driving along Route 346 in Otto Township near Tram Hollow Road when he saw a line of traffic traveling 25 mph in a posted 55 mph zone, led by a silver sport-utility vehicle. He saw the SUV cross the center line and the fog line, two times each, the complaint states. The trooper initiated a traffic stop on the SUV.

The trooper said he was walking toward the SUV when the driver, later identified as Mininni, started to get out. The trooper told him to stay in the vehicle and while Mininni was getting his license and registration, the passenger in the SUV “indicated using her hand that the operator drank a lot of alcohol today,” the complaint stated.

The trooper asked Mininni to get out of the car for sobriety testing. Mininni got out and placed his hands behind his back, as if he were being arrested. The officer attempted an eye test, but Mininni had to hold onto the patrol car so he didn’t fall. They tried a second time, but Mininni wasn’t able to stand up on his own, police said. While attempting the tests, Mininni kept placing his hands behind his back, as if he were being arrested, the complaint stated.

The trooper asked Mininni to take a portable breath test; he refused. He was taken into custody and placed in the front seat of a patrol car. He unbuckled his seatbelt and started arguing with other troopers who had arrived on scene. He was then placed in the back seat of a patrol car and was being transported to Bradford Regional Medical Center for testing when he began spitting at troopers. He was placed in a spit hood, police reported.

At the hospital, he refused further testing, the complaint stated.

He was arraigned before on-call District Judge Bill Todd and remanded to jail in lieu of $10,000 bail. He is scheduled for Central Court on Thursday.
