Nearly five years ago, FTVLive reported on the DUI arrest of Phoenix Reporter Bryan West.

West was working for Tegna’s KPNX when he was busted for DUI after trying to run from police.

West has made a return to reporting and has landed his dream job. He is, and I’m not making this up, the Taylor Swift Reporter for a Nashville newspaper and USA Today.

West claims he is “forever a Swiftie” and Swift herself responded to his post.
