Pop star Justin Bieber has been arrested after police say he drag raced on a Miami Beach street in a yellow Lamborghini and failed a sobriety test early on Thursday.
Miami Beach police confirmed the 19-year-old singer's arrest in a tweet from the department's official account.
“#BreakingNews confirming @justinbieber has been arrested for DUI & Drag Racing more info & press release coming” Miami Beach Police tweeted.
Officers saw two cars racing at 04:09 on Thursday, with two vehicles apparently used to block the area off, Miami Dade-Police spokesperson Bobby Hernandez told WSVN in South Florida.
He says the second car was a red Ferrari, and that driver was also arrested. Both cars were towed. Bieber failed a field sobriety test and was taken to the Miami Beach Police Station for a breathalyser test and processing, Hernandez said.
Bieber will be transported to the Miami-Dade County jail.
The street where police say Bieber was racing is a palm-tree-lined residential area in mid-Miami Beach. Along one side of the street are small apartment buildings, and on the other side are a high school, a youth center, a golf course and a city firehouse.
Seems fame and money is getting into the teenagers head. Keep it Mdundo for more info on this developing story.
