They're going to the chapel and they’re ganja get married.
The fiancé of House Speaker John Boehner’s daughter was once busted for pot possession, a new report said Wednesday.
Lindsay Boehner, 35, is engaged to Jamaica-born Dominic Lakhan, who was arrested in 2006 in Florida after a police officer pulled him over for a traffic violation, the National Enquirer reported.
A cop in Pembroke Pines, Fla., found 4 grams of cannabis in his ashtray.
Pot wasn’t the only illicit substance allegedly in the car. Cops also “observed in plain view a 16 oz. Natural Light beer can opened in the driver door,” the Enquirer said, citing a police report.
“Officer also detected the odor of burnt cannabis emitting from the interior of the vehicle,” according to the police report.
Lakhan, 38, admitted to possessing the marijuana “for personal use” and was taken into custody and charged with misdemeanor possession, the tabloid reported.
Has Lakhan changed his ways? Well, this week, he was spotted in a tall, tan Rastafarian-style hat and satisfying his hunger with takeout from McDonald’s.
The 2006 arrest wasn’t the first boneheaded move by the Boehner beau. In 2003, he was charged with possession of an open container of alcohol while driving, records show.
An Internet registry for “Lindsay Boehner and Dominic Lakhan” lists their nuptials as slated for May 5.
But the grassy haze on his future son-in-law — described by Radar Online as a construction worker — could have John Boehner coughing with embarrassment.
The Ohio politician is a religious Catholic, a well-known conservative — and not a backer of marijuana legalization.
Requests for comment weren’t immediately returned by Boehner spokesmen.
