A newly elected Aurora city councilman arrested on suspicion of drunken driving had a breath alcohol level more than three times the legal limit for driving under the influence in Colorado, police records show. Rob Andrews, 41, was pulled over by Aurora police officers at 9:31 p.m. Saturday after he was seen making an improper left turn, almost hitting a curb, making a U-turn and weaving across lanes of traffic near South Chambers Road and South Chambers Circle, according to an arrest report. Andrews told police he was trying to find his son’s car to jump-start it, and officers noticed he smelled of alcohol and had pinkish, watery eyes, police wrote in the report. When officers asked for his driver’s license, Andrews first gave them his City Council ID before handing over his license. He also mentioned to police that his vehicle belonged to a nonprofit, officers wrote in the report.
