Wisconsin Rep. Jeff Wood (I-Bloomer) is facing fresh OWI charges after he was pulled over Wednesday evening.
The 40-year-old Independent from Bloomer was arrested at 6:30 p.m. on I-39 near Wausau, according to the State Patrol.
Investigators found a prescription bottle of Lorazepam, an anxiety medication, with seven pills in it after stopping Wood's vehicle and noticing he looked sleepy. The prescription of 45 pills had been filled Tuesday.
In December, Wood was charged with third-offense drunken driving and possession of marijuana after he crashed into a highway sign in December in Columbia County.
