Upset DIMEBAG 'Fan' Arrested For Spitting On Police Officers

January 11, 2005

According to Peoria Journal Star, an Illinois man was arrested over the weekend for allegedly spitting on two police officers in early December because he was reportedly upset by the national news about the murder of DAMEGEPLAN/ex-PANTERA guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott.

Tito Mwela, 22, was charged with two counts of aggravated battery, both felonies.

Court files allege that Mwela spat on officers Jeff Hamer and James Rowland on Dec. 10. He is accused of spitting in the face of at least one of the officers.

Earlier police reports indicated officers went to a Macomb address after receiving a report of a suicidal person.

Mwela is in the McDonough County jail on $5,000 bond.
