While speaking with Conley, a trooper reportedly smelled alcohol and saw his eyes were bloodshot and glassy.

Conley failed a breathalyzer test, was placed under arrest and transported to Carter County Detention Center.

Meanwhile, first responders are still combing the lake and the surrounding areas for the girl who was partying with at least 10 friends when she dove overboard to use the bathroom and never returned.
