Passing gas in public is often embarrassing. But for a Dania Beach woman, doing so while waiting in line at a Dollar General store led to her arrest on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill. It’s what police say she did after a man in line complained about the act that led to the charge.

According to a Broward Sheriff’s Office complaint affidavit, Shanetta Yvette Wilson, 37, was in the checkout line at the Dollar General store on 120 S. Federal Hwy in Dania Beach on Sunday evening. John Walker, the customer standing next to her, got into a verbal dispute “in reference to the defendant farting loudly,” according to the affidavit.

Wilson allegedly pulled a small “lock back knife” from her purse, “opened the knife and told the victim she was going to ‘gut’ him,” the police report said. While doing so, she pulled back her right hand with the knife as if she was going to attack the victim with it, the report read.

Walker was “in fear that he was going to be stabbed by the defendant,” the affidavit read. After police were called, Wilson was found by deputies in the area of 45 NW 5th Ave. and identified by Walker.

Wilson was arrested and taken to the Paul Rein Detention Facility in Pompano Beach. Her bail was set at $2,500.

4. Not quite as bad - but

last night I was in Walmart trying to pick out some ribbon for a sewing project. I was the only customer in the aisle. I heard a super loud belch, and then another. When the person had passed behind me I looked at him, probably with a - disapproving, did you really do that expression. He was about 20 and an employee of the store. He stopped and said - you have a question? It was meant as intimidation not assistance.

I don't know what is going on in our society but this should not be normal.

7. "Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon"

Was "aggravated assault" due to the smell or the knife?
