Footage of the 40-year-old thug gyrating at cops circulated on social media after disorder swept the nation.
Video clips showed a large brick hitting a riot shield and bouncing into his face while another hit the back of his head.
When he tried to walk away, a third brick landed on his groin.
Further footage revealed her punched a police vehicle several times before picking up and throwing wheelie bins at officers.
He admitted violent disorder last month at Liverpool Crown Court after his vile actions at the Southport riots on July 30.
The thug stood before a judge again today and the 40-year-old was thrown behind bars for two years and six months.
He was also jailed for admitting to charged of racially and religiously aggravated harassment.
This related to a separate incident the following day at Southport Hospital when the painter-decorator attacked a Polish-speaking patient.
Detective Inspector Paula Jones said: “The actions of the people who took part in the disorder was extremely serious and many officers were injured during the despicable scenes as bricks, bins and other missiles were thrown at them. Spencer was involved in the violence and will now spend a significant amount of time in prison.”
“We continue to review footage and information as it comes in, and we will not stop until we’ve put everyone we possibly can before the courts.”
Merseyside Police have now arrested 163 rioters, with 117 charged and 88 sentenced to a total of 182 years and four months.
Another yob who punched a cop during the violent riots was jailed for three years.
Derek Drummond, 58, took part in violence that erupted in Southport on July 30.
He pleaded guilty after admitting to calling officers “s**thouses” before sucker punching PC Tom Ball in the face, leaving him with bruises.
Two other thugs jailed for their actions were names as Declan Geiran and Liam Riley.
Geiran, 29, was found with three lighters when arrested and confessed to the attack on a police vehicle.
The court heard the rioter had also sent threatening messages to a woman who slammed him online, for which he was caged for two months.
Meanwhile Riley, 41, joined a 100-man march through Liverpool city centre.
And, a teenager who smashed a police car during scenes of chaos in Bolton on Sunday was the first to be jailed.
James Nelson, 18, appeared at Manchester Magistrates’ Court charged with causing criminal damage.
He pleaded guilty to the offence and became the first rioter to be jailed after he was sentenced to two months’ imprisonment.
Investigators are still trawling through footage and cops urged anyone with information to contact the force by calling 101 or anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
