Vice Presidential daughter Ashley Biden, currently embroiled in a cocaine scandal, was arrested in New Orleans on drug charges ten years ago, a college classmate told the New York Post Monday.

As RadarOnline.com was first to report this weekend, an explosive video that purports to show Ashley snorting cocaine is being peddled to various media outlets.

Nat Berman, who attended Tulane with Biden, said she called him in Sept. 1999 to tell him she was coming over to his home. She called an hour later, he said, asking for him to bail her out of jail after she was arrested on possession of marijuana charges.

"She was freaking out. She was like, 'I'm in this cell,'" Berman told the paper. "She was not happy."

Berman, 30, said he paid a bail bondsman between $200 and $400 to bail her out, then drove her home.
