A man was arrested Thursday for allegedly urinating on a woman as she slept at the Memphis International Airport.
Demarkus Bush, 34, was charged with public assault and intoxication.
According to an offense report from the Memphis International Airport Police Department, officers responded early Thursday morning to a terminal where Bush was seen standing over a woman and urinating on her as she slept in the waiting area. Airport spokesperson Glen Thomas said in an email that the incident happened on the ticketing side of the airport.
“A situation like this is rare and unusual,” he said.
Bush was speaking loudly and slurring, and told officials he had consumed multiple alcoholic beverages before he got to the airport, the report said. Officers searched him for weapons or contraband but none were found, the report said.
The victim told police she was OK, but wanted to clean her coat.
Court records show Bush posted a $1,000 bail and is due in court Dec. 27.
