According to RadarOnline.com, the discredited Fox News journalist who was accused of raping a colleague is in trouble again for allegedly driving drunk in Florida.
Ed Henry was detained when a sheriff’s officer observed his black Cadillac Escalade with a punctured tire and metal rim audibly grating against the pavement on June 20 at approximately 8 p.m. in West Palm Beach. Henry was a former White House correspondent and America’s Newsroom co-anchor.
According to an exclusive deputy’s report obtained by RadarOnline.com, Henry, who is the subject of an ongoing federal sexual harassment complaint, appeared oblivious of the damaged tire as he rounded a corner at a normal rate of speed.
“In doing this the front driver’s (side) tire came off the rim and rolled into the east bound lanes almost striking an oncoming vehicle,” the report stated. “That vehicle had to apply (it’s) brakes and swerve to avoid being hit by the tire.”
Henry, 51, walked into the Cadillac dealership and informed the deputy that he had replaced the now-missing tire there.
“While Henry was talking, I was able to smell the odor of unknown alcohol coming from his breath,” the deputy stated on the report. “Henry had glassy and bloodshot eyes…His gait was unsteady. His speech was slightly slurred.”
Henry admitted to consuming two bourbons between 6:00 and 7:00 p.m. on neighboring Singer Island, despite the deputy’s description of him as “cooperative and polite.”
Additionally, according to the study, Henry failed the “one leg stand,” the “walk and turn,” and the “finger to nose” tests because he consistently utilized the pad of his finger rather than the tip of his finger. “He swayed during the tasked and tilted his head forward.”
Henry was detained despite voluntarily submitting to an alcohol breath test that resulted in a reading just below the legal limit of 0.08 percent, according to the documents. During his detention, Henry was described as “calm” and “quiet” because he reportedly refused to answer inquiries and exercised his right to legal counsel.
