Former Kavanaugh Classmate Recalls 1985 Drunken Bar Fight
---------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, a former classmate of Kavanaugh said Monday that he watched
as a drunken Brett Kavanaugh got into a bar fight near the campus of
Yale after the pair attended a reggae concert in 1985. This is Chad
Ludington, speaking on CNN.

Chad Ludington: "Brett said, '[bleep] you,' or something to that effect,
and threw the ice at the guy. And the guy, understandably, even though
he had been aggressive in his response, found that was a little one step
too far, so he took a swing at Brett, and then they were kind of, you
know, two guys fighting."

The FBI is investigating the 1985 bar fight, in which Kavanaugh was
questioned by New Haven police but not arrested.
