Republican Politician Appears To Pee His Pants In DUI Arrest, Stumble In Sobriety Test: Video
Tennessee state Sen. Ken Yager wet himself during a traffic arrest in Georgia on Tuesday, according to an incident report, with video appearing to show the politician wearing stained pants as he staggers in a sobriety test.
Yager, who chairs the Senate Republican Caucus in his state, was charged with hit-and-run, failure to stop at a stop sign and DUI (less safe driver), a spokesperson for the Glynn County Sheriff’s Office told HuffPost on Thursday.
“An unfortunate incident happened last night,” the politician said in a statement to various media outlets. “On the advice of my attorney, I cannot discuss the particulars at this time. I am and will continue to cooperate fully with authorities to bring this incident to an appropriate conclusion.”
Troopers were investigating a hit-and-run involving a Ford Edge and reportedly tracked it to a grocery store parking lot on Jekyll Island. An individual there, identified as Yager, was already being treated for injuries by emergency personnel when they arrived, WKRN reported.
