Police: Officer Smelled Alcohol on Kennedy

Police said Kennedy exited his vehicle, was observed to be staggering, and identified himself as a member of Congress. He said he was late for a vote, though the last vote had been hours earlier.

"I would say within law enforcement that there is probably concern that consideration was given to a member of Congress that would not have been afforded a normal citizen on the street," Cannon said.
