A Nevada senator was arrested for suspicion of DUI after the lawmaker was busted slumped over and apparently passed out in the driver’s seat of his car at a traffic light. Sen. Edgar Flores (D-NV) was caught seemingly snoozing at a red light in the Northeast Las Vegas area in the early morning hours of Sept. 12 as a Las Vegas Metro Police officer pulled up behind him, according to body camera footage. Officers discovered Flores, who was unresponsive, had his keys in the ignition of his Jeep Wrangler, which was in drive and his foot remained on the brake. Flores doesn’t wake up until one of the officers knocks on his window — startling him awake — despite authorities trying to open the driver’s door and flashing him with lights.
