Man allegedly punches himself in the face to avoid breathalyzer

BELFAST, Maine (WGME) – Belfast police say they have arrested a man who allegedly punched himself in the face to avoid a breathalyzer test.

Police say they found the car of 27-year-old Brian Fogg in a ditch early Saturday morning on Waterville Road.

When they tried to administer a breathalyzer test, Fogg allegedly punched himself in the face three times, causing himself to bleed.

Police tended to his injuries instead of giving him the test.

Fogg is charged with OUI, falsifying physical evidence and criminal mischief.

He has since been released on bail.
