The rookie cop who arrested Justin Timberlake because DWI is enjoying his summer in the Hamptons… and doesn’t seem the least bit concerned about his newfound fame.
Michael Arkinson – the Sag Harbor police officer who pulled Justin and took him to prison – spent Sunday Funday on a boat, about an hour north of where he arrested JT. If you didn’t know, he and his partner, Otisare named in the police report as the arresting officers… but Mike is getting credit as the guy who brought Justin in to be arrested.
Anyway… check out these photos/videos, obtained by TMZ, showing a sometimes shirtless Arkinson sitting on a motorboat docked at a restaurant in Greenport, NY over the weekend.
People who were there told us that Arkinson was eating and drinking at Claudio’s Waterfront… and kept a relatively low profile after his big bust, although it doesn’t look like he was trying to hide out here. The guy is living life… undeterred by all the attention he received following Justin’s arrest last week.
Arkinson, we were told, was with some friends – and they spent a few hours at the seafood restaurant before heading back to the boat.
The guy is already known in Sag Harbor. Locals told the media that he’s a bit of a stickler for traffic and is now even more in the spotlight – a bit of a local celebrity, so to speak.
Based on what we’re seeing here, Arkinson isn’t very shy… and it looks like he knows how to have a good time on Long Island, even after his name was thrown around in the media last week.
Don’t expect to see Arkinson’s body camera footage of his interaction with Justin anytime soon — as we first reported, Sag Harbor police are not releasing the footage …at least not until the investigation is over.

You have to imagine the conversations he’s been having lately – something tells us they all start with the same question, about the same suspect.
