The state police charged state Rep. Raymond J. Sullivan Jr., D-Coventry, with drunken driving, saying the House deputy majority leader was unable to recite the alphabet after troopers stopped his car on Route 95 early Wednesday.
Accompanied by a lawyer, Rep. J. Patrick O’Neill, who is a deputy House speaker, Sullivan was brought before a bail commissioner at the Wickford barracks, and was released pending an appearance in District Court, Warwick, on May 4, according to state police Capt. James Swanberg.
Swanberg said two troopers on traffic duty saw Sullivan’s car weave into the breakdown lane of the highway shortly after 1 a.m., and when they followed it, the car continued to move erratically until they stopped it.
