Louser, of Minot, didn’t immediately pull over after the trooper activated his lights.

Winbauer, her mother, Louser and other realtors had all been at the same bar earlier in the night and Louser said he would take her to see her mother as the bar was closing.

Louser is due to make his initial court appearance on May 12.

Before the trooper took him to jail, Louser said his passenger was an attorney and he wanted to talk to her.

House Majority Leader Chet Pollert has said Louser doesn’t have a history of alcohol issues and “folks like us should be willing to give him a break.”
