Lepak was arrested Friday night in Edmond after police responded around 10:45 p.m. to a report of a man who appeared to be drunk in public, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital.

Officers found Lepak standing near the restaurant's drive-thru window and saw his vehicle in the parking lot, according to the affidavit.
