Ex-Fox News reporter Ed Henry, who was accused of raping a co-worker, has been arrested in Florida.
According to information on the police report, Henry was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol.
Henry was the former chief White House correspondent for Fox and co-anchor of “America’s Newsroom.”
After being accused of raping ex-Fox News employee Jennifer Eckhart and sexual harassment by another employee, Cathy Areu, Henry was fired by the network.
He was arrested in West Palm Beach around 8 p.m. on June 20.
Henry was taken into custody when a sheriff’s deputy spotted his Black Cadillac Escalade cruising down the street with a flat tire and exposed metal rim grinding against the road.
He was unaware he had a flat and was shooting off sparks as he drove down the road, according to a deputy’s report.
He was arrested for DUI.
The report said: “In doing this the front driver’s side tire came off the rim and rolled into the eastbound lanes almost striking an oncoming vehicle.
“That vehicle had to apply its brakes and swerve to avoid being hit by the tire.”

FAKE NEWS - since they’re implying the Mr. Henry is straight.
Scumbag. Making conservatives look stupid. Why can’t people behave themselves?
Eds a mess. Hope he gets his drinking under control.
Cathy Areu. Now that one is a major disgrace
What a shame.... Pride....goeth before a fall.
“another employee, Cathy Areu”
Sexually harassing that skank? There isn’t enough imagination in the world to make me buy that one.
Always seemed like a low-key sort of dude - but you never know what's lurking underneath.
And for what it's worth, Cathy Areu, AKA "Liberal Sherpa" is a certifiable loon. Not that it couldn't be true, but anyone with sense stays far away from that type.
Sad for all involved. While I don’t know all details here and cast no uninformed judgements, my family (and many others, most maybe) has felt the impact of alcoholism and the destruction it brings. While AA is not for everyone it has helped many stop drinking and resume productive and meaningful lives. Prayers for healing.
Scumbags always do this.
High and mighty Mr Coordinator. Have you done this for anyone?
Liver? Let’s hope she does. A liver filled with alcohol is not good.
That woman, well just looking at her you know she is a serial liar.
He’s obviously struggling with his profession, as any person with a brain would. Put down the bottle, zip it up, and go find an honorable and ethical line of work. The news media sure ain’t that.
Thank you for your sanity.
It has been some years ago and he was never accused of drinking.
You should be ashamed of your attitude.
The ugly is big, with that one.
I’m not going to stick up for a rapist. Sorry. You do you. Morals have to hit rock bottom eventually. If he just was a drunk, I’d sympathize with him. But raping a woman is not cool. Married too. You really are a libertarian at best. Let people live the lives they want is your motto apparently.
People in the Pro America media side take terrible abuse from leftists and it is made worse by virtue signaling idiots on the right who are as willing as the left to trash and spit on them.
n July 2020, Areu and another woman filed a lawsuit against Fox News and some of its prominent contributors. The suit states that Areu was sexually harassed at Fox News, including by Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, and Howard Kurtz.[10] The organization Times Up said in September 2020 that it was “providing PR support” to Areu.[11] On November 15, 2021, the case was dismissed. The court provided an opportunity to file an amended suit, but Areu never did. The case was dismissed in November 2021 with prejudice.[12][13]
Arrest
Areu was arrested in December 2022 and charged with kidnapping, exploitation of the elderly and scheming to defraud her elderly mother. Prosecutors in Miami-Dade County allege Areu stole at least $224,000 in the matter
