Records show other charges include speeding more than 26 mph over the speed limit and disregarding traffic signals.

An arrest citation said Knott was unsteady on his feet and had slurred speech. Knott allegedly refused a breathalyzer, so a warrant was submitted and his blood was taken.

Covington police say they’re aware of the arrest and are investigating. Knott has been placed on administrative duty pending the outcome.

Covington government websites show that Knott served as a member of the Covington police community liaison team.
