Wisconsin man belly flopped on to police car, breaking windshield.

Ah, Wisconsin

A New Year's Eve reveler was arrested after belly-flopping onto a Menasha Police Department squad car at the shortly after midnight Sunday, smashing the vehicle's windshield, police said.

The 25-year-old Kimberly man had been drinking and had already jumped onto a different vehicle near Oak St. and Nicolet Blvd. before police arrived to investigate that incident, according to a post on the Menasha Police Department Facebook page.

Dashcam video shows the man charging toward the stopped squad before leaping onto the windshield.

Two officers were injured while taking the man into custody, one who was treated at a hospital and released, and another who did not seek medical treatment, according to police.
