Carl Jackson Jr of Little Rock, Arkansas was arrested after spitting HIV infected blood at police officers while screaming about being HIV positive and attacking them with a broken metal pipe while naked. Officer Jennifer K. Zarlingo reported that Jackson made a spittoon of her face while shouting obscenities in all directions before being hit with pepper spray and finally subdued. He was later treated and given an HIV test that came back positive.
The incident started at 29 Rosemont Drive with Jackson throwing rocks at a postal worker.
Jackson had previously appeared on a Little Rock HIV awareness news special where he shared his story of living with HIV.
