He was arrested in Sag Harbor area of the Hamptons

The initial arrest was made in the early hours of Tuesday morning and Justin Timberlake had reportedly been dining and drinking with pals at a hotel. The chief of Sag Harbor police said he couldn’t drive staying in the correct lane and ran a stop sign. His eyes were reportedly bloodshot and gassy.

The officer had no clue who he was

According to Page Six, the young Sag Harbor officer who pulled Justin Timberlake over at the scene of the arrest didn’t recognise him and didn’t even know who he was when he saw his name. When he got arrested, Timberlake reportedly muttered under his breath “This is going to ruin the tour.”

He has several dates of his tour across the US this week and throughout the next months.
