Police arrested a Democratic Minnesota state representative on July 7 after the lawmaker got drunk by himself and then hopped behind the wheel.
A Minnesota State Patrol officer stopped Rep. Dan Wolgamott on a state highway on after noticing his car was weaving, had an expired registration and lacked a front license plate, according to MPR News. The trooper had been searching for the vehicle after reports circulated of a man drinking vodka alone in a liquor store parking lot.
Wolgamott failed the field sobriety tests and registered .106 in a preliminary breath test, which exceeds the legal limit of .080, the outlet reported. Police arrested him and booked him into the Kanabec County Jail on suspicion of fourth-degree DWI.
