SmokingGun Meet Cody James Romano. The 25-year-old Wisconsin resident rang in the New Year by performing an exquisite belly flop atop the windshield of a police cruiser, as seen in the above dashcam footage. Romano, for some reason, charged the stationary squad car shortly after midnight Sunday. As he reached the vehicle’s front end, Romano launched himself into the air. Upon landing, Romano smashed the windshield of the cruiser (pictured below), which was occupied by a Menasha Police Department officer. After a scuffle with cops, Romano was taken into custody and transported to a local hospital for treatment. He was then booked into the county jail on multiple charges, including battery to a law enforcement officer, disorderly conduct, and criminal damage to property. Investigators say that Romano (seen above) “had been drinking” prior to his ill-conceived execution of the January 1 belly flop in Menasha, a city about 35 miles south of Green Bay. According to his LinkedIn page, Romano works as a customer service manager at Walmart.

The year 2017 got off to a rough start for a Wisconsin man named Cody James Romano, he got drunk and executed a running bellyflop onto a police cruiser, and the whole incident was captured on the cop car’s dashcam. The video is must-watch, Romano lines up the police car and gets a running start like a charging rhino, before splashing on the windshield and damaging the vehicle. Romano was arrested on multiple charges, but the video is absolutely hilarious, and I would like to thank Cody James Romano for this act of stupidity as the viral video is making a lot of people laugh to kick off 2017.
