Justin Bieber's Mug Shot After Being Arrested For Drag Racing & DUI

Justin Bieber was arrested early Thursday morning after leaving a Miami Beach club — busted for drag racing and DUI. Police, who released Bieber's mug shot today just before an upcoming bail hearing.

According to the police chief, the pop artist reportedly “admitted to consuming alcohol, prescription drugs and marijuana,”

“He was very uncooperative with the officers at the scene, using profanity.”

A source told theKONGLIST® News that Bieber was leaving SET Nightclub on Lincoln Road before he was arrested.

Miami Beach police said Bieber was pulled over for speeding in a yellow Lamborghini and failed a field sobriety test. This is a first-degree misdemeanor, which could get him up to six months in jail and have his license suspended for six months.

But he may be eligible for a program for first-time offenders that recurs the charge to reckless driving, says defense attorney Mark Eiglarsh, who is not involved in this case. Florida has zero tolerance for underage drinkers and if the singer enters a program for first-time offenders Bieber will have to steer clear of all drugs and alcohol, as was the case with celeb Lindsay Lohan.

Miami Beach Police Chief Raymond Martinez told the Miami Herald that Bieber was incoherent at the time of his arrest. He had his hands in his pockets and resisted arrest without violence, the chief said, adding that the singer was driving with a Georgia license that expired at least six months ago.

Police allege that Bieber cursed out the arresting officer then admitted to having beer, marijuana and prescription drugs in his system.

The musician's entourage had apparently used their cars to block traffic on Pine Tree Drive at 26th Street, a residential area, at around 4 a.m., creating a drag strip for Bieber, who was in a Lamborghini, the newspaper reported.

Bieber was taken to county jail for processing. Miami Beach Police Detective Vivian Hernandez added that under Florida law Bieber had to spend a mandatory eight-hour drying out period in lockup after a DUI arrest.

Police said that the other alleged drag racer, who was racing Bieber in a red Ferrari, was Khalil Amir Sharieff and he was also charged with DUI. The police report said the cars were going 55 to 60 in a residential zone posted at 30 mph.


Chantel Jeffries — a 21-year-old model, video girl and girlfriend of NFL wide-receiver DeSean Jackson of the Philadelphia Eagles, was relatively unknown to the rest of mainstream America, perhaps she was dragged into the spotlight? (Pun intended.) Chantel Jeffries’ rap sheet lists five arrests, including one in 2011 for assault with a deadly weapon.

The 19-year-old Canadian pop singer is involved w/ a string of legal issues in the past year. He was recently investigated by Los Angeles police after a neighbor accused Bieber of throwing eggs at his house.
