Rep. Matthew Dowling, R-Fayette, was charged June 30 by state police in Uniontown with misdemeanor driving under the influence, along with traffic offenses.

UNIONTOWN, Pa. — A state lawmaker from western Pennsylvania removed his name from the ballot for reelection after police filed a drunken driving charge against him last week.

In the affidavit, one of the emergency medical responders said when personnel arrived Dowling was seen sitting in the grass with no shoes on and he “exhibited an altered mental status, poor balance, slurred/delayed speech, and she smelled the odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from him.” Later on the day of the crash, Dowling told police he did not remember a car crash or remember speaking with the other driver.
