Justin Bieber has been bailed on charges of driving under the influence, drag racing and resisting police arrest without violence.

Bieber, who was at the wheel of a rented yellow Lamborghini, was arrested at 4.19 a.m. on Thursday morning and charged with driving under the influence, driving with an expired licence and resisting arrest “without violence”.

According to the Miami Herald, Bieber’s entourage had used large, black SUVs to block traffic on Pine Tree Drive, turning the street into a drag strip. Bieber was allegedly driving at up to 60mph.

Police officer Fulgencio Medina said that as he approached Bieber’s vehicle he noted Bieber’s “bloodshot eyes” and “stupor look”.

The police report states Bieber confessed to having beer, marijuana and prescription drugs in his system. Miami Beach Police Chief Raymond Martinez said the star was “a little belligerent”.

Bieber objected to Medina’s body search, reportedly saying,

R&B artist Khalil, who was driving a Ferrari, was also arrested. A drink driving conviction in Florida has a maximum jail term of six months.
