An Oklahoma Senator is charged after falling asleep at the side of the road.

Bryce Marlatt, a republican senator from Woodward, is charged with Actual Physical Control, according to Marlatt’s attorney.

His attorney states that Marlatt took a sleeping pill after having a mixed drink, stopped his car on the side of a country road and fell asleep.

An officer spotted him and that is what lead to the charge.
