Justin Timberlake was arrested for DUI after a night out with friends

The arrest of Justin Timberlake for driving under the influence of alcohol caused quite a stir. Now, the media reports how the singer was detained by the police. The 43-year-old did not want to undergo a sobriety test and declared that he "had one martini." A recording from the fateful night is circulating online.

The fact that celebrities tend to break the law doesn't need to be specially proven to anyone. The emotions following the legal troubles of Nicki Minaj had barely cooled down, and the showbiz world was already electrified by the news of another celebrity arrest, this time of Justin Timberlake.

According to one tabloid, Justin Timberlake was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. A source for the TZM service reported that the 43-year-old singer had dinner with friends at a hotel in Sag Harbor, New York, on Monday evening and got behind the wheel shortly after midnight. Media reports indicate that the singer is free but faces a trial scheduled for July 26th.

There is constantly new information online regarding the reprehensible incident involving the artist. The "CNN" portal, citing a statement issued by the Sag Harbor police, reported that Justin Timberlake did not stay in his lane or stop at a stop sign. After being stopped, he also refused a breathalyzer test. According to the "DailyMail," the 43-year-old stated during his arrest that he "had one martini." Meanwhile, the "TZM" portal found that the singer's friends tried to convince the police officers to let him go. However, this did not happen...

A photo of Justin Timberlake taken right after his arrest also appeared online. In the mentioned photograph, we can see the artist with a stone face and glassy eyes. The police officer described in court records that "His eyes were bloodshot and glassy, a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage was emanating from his breath, he was unable to divide attention, he had slowed speech, he was unsteady afoot and he performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests."
