Henna Baig, prosecuting, said: 'Officers were attending Old Street and saw the defendant. They noticed that Ms Maximen was acting erratically, shouting, and saw that she was crying.
'They approached the defendant and arrested her for being drunk and disorderly.
'Police managed to put her in the police van, but she managed to get her arm under PC Alex Gill's vest and grab his stomach.
'He shouted for the defendant to let go and she did, and no injuries were caused.
'After being taken to custody, she attempted to spit at police several times.'
