Justin Timberlake Arrested for Driving While Intoxicated

Justin Timberlake was arrested and charged with driving while intoxicated last night in New York, TMZ reports. The singer was briefly detained before being released without bail this morning, following a brief court appearance. Pitchfork has emailed his lawyer for comment.

Timberlake was trying to drive home from a party in the Hamptons when police noticed him miss a stop sign and swerve out of his lane, police told TMZ. He declined to take a breathalyser and failed a field sobriety test: to stand on one leg and do a walk-and-turn. He is scheduled to appear in court again on July 26.
