    CALGARY — A 33-year-old woman has been charged with assault after a bag of vomit was hurled at a Calgary cab driver.
     
    Police say early Sunday morning a taxi driver picked up a woman who grew nauseous and was provided with a bag to vomit into during the ride home.
     
    Upon arrival, the passenger continued to throw up on the exterior of the vehicle and when the driver requested a cleanup fee the woman became abusive.
