HARRISBURG, Pa.—A Pennsylvania state representative from the Hazleton area says she's one of the people in a newly posted YouTube video that shows young women in a room with a bong and what appears to be marijuana.

But Rep. Tarah Toohil said in a statement Wednesday that the images in the "Pizza Party" video are more than a decade old. She said "I am not that young woman today."

She called the video "a blatant and personal attack" intended to "degrade me for photos taken many years ago."

Toohil says she's speaking out to tell young people that drugs are not OK and to warn them to be careful in making choices.

The Luzerne County Republican, a lawyer, is finishing her first term after upsetting Democrat Todd Eachus two years ago.
