Man purposely vomited on Phillies fans

Matthew Clemens, a 21 year old NJ man, intentionally vomited on an 11 year old and her father during a Phillies game. Apparently Clemens’ friend was removed from the stadium section for unruly behavior and this angered Clemens. A police officer at the game witnessed Clemens intentionally vomit on the fans. The officer stated that Clemens then resisted arrest by punching and also vomiting on the arresting him (the officer). Matthew Clemens is being charged with harassment and assault.

This is such a terrible thing to do to someone else. Not only was this man punishing these innocent bystanders (for something they didn’t do or had control over) but he also put them at risk for contracting disease. Matthew Clemens must have been overly intoxicated to have so much puke in his system but then again, he wasn’t charged for public drunkenness. His bail is set at $12,000 and I hope that the judge makes this man somehow ratify his actions with an apology. Clemens definitely infringed on their right to privacy and personal protection.

  1. That is one of the most disgusting stories I have ever heard. I can't say that I have ever heard of someone vomiting on someone on purpose before.
