TAMPA, Fla. — Authorities said two men were arrested after they threw an unopened 16-ounce can of Bud Light at an unmarked police vehicle. Tampa police Cpl. Richard Blasioli was on duty early Thursday morning, driving an unmarked 2001 Ford Expedition, when he saw a 1999 Toyota Solara cruising the wrong way down a road.

Officers arrested the pair within minutes.
Both men were charged with throwing a deadly missile at an occupied vehicle, and the passenger faces an additional drug possession charge.
They were later released on bail.
