Arrest Warrant Issued for Pennsylvania State Rep. Kevin Boyle

Philadelphia police have issued an arrest warrant for Pennsylvania State Representative Kevin Boyle, following a violation of a protection from abuse order, authorities announced on Tuesday. Boyle, who represents Pennsylvania District 172, covering parts of Montgomery County and Northeast Philly, including Burholme, Bustleton, and Fox Chase, has yet to respond to the warrant.

Just two months ago, Boyle gained viral attention on social media after allegedly threatening staff at the Gaul & Co. Malt House in Rockledge, Montgomery County. According to police reports, Boyle was allegedly intoxicated and possibly under the influence of drugs during the incident. Despite being asked to leave multiple times, Boyle refused and proceeded to threaten employees. However, he was not charged in relation to the incident.

Following the altercation, Boyle was informed by authorities that he was banned from Gaul & Co. Malt House. The incident garnered attention due to Boyle's high-profile status as a state representative and his connection as the brother of Democratic Congressman Brendan Boyle, who represents Pennsylvania's 2nd District in the U.S. House of Representatives.

The arrest warrant will now add further legal complications for Boyle, as authorities seek to address the violation of the protection from abuse order. The representative's team has yet to provide a response to the warrant, leaving many curious about the next course of action.

As this story unfolds, the community awaits Boyle's response, while some speculate on the potential consequences he may face given the arrest warrant. For now, the future of State Representative Kevin Boyle's career remains uncertain, as legal proceedings take their course.
