“A traffic stop was initiated by an officer from the Sag Harbor Village Police Department and, upon investigation, it was determined that Mr. Timberlake was operating his vehicle while intoxicated,” the statement continued. Noting that Timberlake failed to run multiple stop signs, police said Timberlake was then pulled over.
“Upon contacting (Timberlake), it was determined that (he) was operating the said vehicle under intoxicated conditions, as his eyes were bloodshot and glassy, a strong odor of alcoholic beverage emanated from his breath, he was unable to divided attention, he had slow speech, was unsteady and performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests,” police said in a statement.
Timberlake stated that he had “a martini”, which was later corroborated by the bartender who served him.
On June 19, a source told ET“Justin is feeling regretful, ashamed and humiliated, but also responsible.”
According to the source, Timberlake “doesn’t believe he needs help when it comes to alcohol,” instead viewing the incident as a “huge lapse in judgment.”
