Student arrested for blocking toilet

A US college student's been arrested on the Canadian border and charged with blocking a toilet after answering a call of nature.

Jesse Huffman, 19, told officers in Port of Sweet Grass that he didn't intentionally block the toilet.

He said he has symptoms of Irritable Bowl Syndrome and used "at most" a fifth of a roll of toilet paper, says the Great Falls Tribune.

"I've never been arrested before or anything like that, and I get arrested for taking a dump," said Huffman.

He was returning to Montana with four friends after visiting Alberta when port authorities stopped their car for a random search. The car's 19-year-old driver was summonsed for possession of alcohol.

Huffman was waiting for the driver when he asked to use the bathroom. He said he tried to show inspectors that he didn't purposely clog the toilet and offered to try to fix the problem himself.

But officers told him "they had absolutely no plungers within 40 miles," Huffman said.

He faces a criminal mischief charge. If convicted, he could get up to six months in jail and a $1,000 (about £600) fine.
