Kirkpatrick reportedly reeked of alcohol as officers questioned him and showed signs of impairment after taking sobriety tests. After being Mirandized, Kirkpatrick admitted to consuming “three vodka red bulls” and “three shots” earlier at Rosemary & Beauty Queen in East Nashville. Kirkpatrick took a breathalyzer test that resulted in 0.180% BAC and was taken into custody for driving under the influence.
