A SOUTHERN Downs teen who viciously assaulted a police officer and urinated in a watch house cell has fronted court for her "despicable, vulgar" outbursts.
Stanthorpe police were called to Shakira Lee Kelly's home on August 25 when she and her ex-boyfriend got into a heated argument outside, during which Kelly punched a brick wall and cut her hand.
The Stanthorpe Magistrates Court heard 18-year-old Kelly was still agitated by the time police arrived, and repeatedly grabbed the back of one officer's jacket in an attempt to stop him going inside.
Police prosecutor Ken Wiggan said Kelly then punched the policeman in the face with her bloodied fist.
