South Dakota politics has finally produced the story we didn’t know we needed: a state senator allegedly driving drunk in a combine.
Republican Sen. Mark Lapka of Leola faces charges of DUI and failure to stop after an accident following an incident a few weeks ago in McPherson County. Video reportedly connected to the incident appears to show the machine tangled in a tree after encountering stop signs and a power pole.
Failure to stop, at least on his own. That cottonwood seemed pretty committed to enforcing the matter.
