Police arrested Rep. Dean Davis, R-Broken Arrow, for public intoxication early Thursday morning at Skinny Slims shortly after 2 a.m.
Police have released additional footage from the Bricktown arrest Thursday of Oklahoma state Rep. Dean Davis, R-Broken Arrow, that shows him continue to insist officers were constitutionally prohibited from arresting him while the Legislature is in session.
In four excerpts of video footage released late Friday by the Oklahoma City Police Department, Davis, 50, is handcuffed in the backseat of a patrol car, arguing with Sgt. Timothy Brewer, after having been arrested on complaint of public intoxication at a Skinny Slim's bar in Oklahoma City around 2:15 a.m. Thursday.
"You chose the wrong person, congratulations!" Davis can be heard telling the officer, while also claiming that he had been unfairly singled out of the group who were with him that night.
In an arrest report, Brewer wrote early Thursday he and a police lieutenant were traveling eastbound on E. Main St. toward the Bricktown police station when they saw several people on the patio of a bar, which is against the law after 2 a.m. When police approached the group and told them to leave the bar, three men would not comply, the report said. Davis "became argumentative" and pulled out his wallet to show his legislative credentials, according to the arrest report.
