A Minnesota state lawmaker was arrested for driving while impaired early Friday morning in White Bear Lake after a breath test showed his blood alcohol concentration was above the legal limit.

State Rep. Elliott Engen, 27, a Republican representing District 36A, was pulled over near the intersection of 4th Street and Otter Lake Road around 1:51 a.m. on March 27 after White Bear Lake police observed him speeding, driving with expired registration and an inoperable headlight, the department said.\
