Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was reportedly questioned by police in 1985 after he was accused of throwing ice on someone during a college bar fight.
The New York Times obtained a report from the New Haven Police Department on Monday dating back to when Kavanaugh was an undergraduate student at Yale University.
Kavanaugh, then 21 years old, was questioned along with four other men after an early morning altercation at Demerys bar in September 1985.
Kavanaugh was not arrested but was accused of throwing ice on someone for some unknown reason, according to the report obtained by The Times.
Kavanaugh did not want to say if he threw the ice or not when speaking with officers, according to the report.
A witness told police that Chris Dudley, one of Kavanaughs friends, also hit the man in the ear with a glass. Dudley denied the accusation.
Police noted that the victim, Dom Cozzolino, was bleeding from the right ear and was treated at a local hospital.
The newspaper noted that the local bar, known for serving pizza and beer, closed in 1994.
The report obtained by The Times lists the altercation as an assault but does not indicate if there were ever any arrests or charges filed.
The White House did not immediately respond to The Hills request for comment on Monday.
Dudley did not respond to The Times request for comment and Cozzolino declined to comment to the newspaper.
Kavanaughs drinking habits have been under a spotlight since he was publicly accused of sexual assault by Christine Blasey Ford and two other women.
Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee last week and alleged a drunken Kavanaugh assaulted her during a summer house party in the 1980s when they were both high school students.
Deborah Ramirez, the second woman to come forward with accusations against Kavanaugh, has reportedly spoken with the FBI as part of its additional investigation into the judge.
Ramirez told The New Yorker last week that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her at a dorm party at Yale University in the 1980s, causing her to touch his penis when she pushed him.
A third woman, Julie Swetnick, claims that Kavanaugh attended a party where she was drugged with "Quaaludes or something similar" and attacked by a series of men in a "gang rape."
Kavanaugh has denied all of the allegations against him.
The nominee testified under oath that he had never blacked out or passed out due to alcohol consumption.
Chad Ludington, a man who attended Yale with Kavanaugh, told The Times on Sunday that Kavanaugh had mischaracterized his alcohol consumption during his testimony.
Ludington said he saw Kavanaugh "staggering from alcohol consumption" multiple times, describing him as a "belligerent and aggressive" drunk.
"It is truth that is at stake, and I believe that the ability to speak the truth, even when it does not reflect well upon oneself, is a paramount quality we seek in our nations most powerful judges, Ludington said in a statement, according to the Times.
The White House on Monday released statements from Dan Murphy and Chris Dudley, Kavanaugh's former suitemate and classmate respectively, who said they never saw Kavanaugh black out from drinking.
Man, this is YUGE.
Not.
Come now.
There are all sorts of exceptions to booze, drugs, violence, all manner of contemptibility in these situations, provided you are of the party that hates/ shames America.

Well dearie me. In 2007 I discussed a taxi fare dispute with the Oslo police. Although admitted to the practice of law in two states, I guess I am disqualified from service on the Supreme Court.

What were we told? The same people condemning Brett Kavanaugh said Trayvon Martin was doing normal Teenage things.
The same people that attack Brett Kavanaugh said you could look at Trayvon Martin and see he was good, and innocent.
Why doesnt that apply here?

Trayvon Martins Father, Barack Obama, if he had a son, wrote that his High School days were a Drug induced haze that he cant recall much, except his boys in the Choom gang.

I didn't think so.
Oh forget it!
Larry Sinclair had information that Bathhouse Barry while a state senator in Chicago, cruised homosexual bars looking for action. Larry Sinclair said he smoked crack cocaine and engaged in oral sex with Bathhouse Barry. Larry Sinclair was summarily ignored by the media, to include Fox. Bathhouse Barry served 8 long years as US president. You can bet that if Bathhouse Barry had been a republican, white or black, he would have been labeled a homosexual crackhead, who had committed sodomy and was open to blackmail. He would have been ran out of the race.
I agree. Hes just a normal guy.
I was once questioned by police in regard to a bank robbery.
I was standing in line and the customer in front of me robbed the bank. The police interrogated me for all of 15 seconds.
I guess the FBI missed that on my background check.
How about that scene in “Top Gun” in which Tom Cruise accosts Kelly McGillis in the ladies room? And also serenades her with “You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling”.
I punched my sister once. Count me out for any future political ambitions (Im certain shed rat me out.)
he didnt throw ice on anyone ....no
he threw it on Dom Cozzolino.
He went down, down down, in a melting ring of ice cubes,
There were lots of times that he ogled nice boobs,
and a kegger raged for most of third year,
call the FBI.
Well they’ve got him there. What a bad boy. Deary me!
