According to the probable cause affidavit from Mountain Home Police, Kennedy and his girlfriend were traveling on Arkansas State Highway 201 and started arguing. The girlfriend told police Kennedy grabbed the steering wheel and jerked it, causing the vehicle to cross the other lane of traffic. The vehicle then left the roadway, struck a culvert and began to roll before coming to rest in the wood line.
