"On June 18, 2024, at 12:37 AM, Justin R. Timberlake, age 43, of Tennessee, was observed operating a 2025 BMW southbound on Madison Street, failing to stop at a duly posted stop sign and failing to maintain his lane of travel," reads a police statement from the Sag Harbor PD. "A traffic stop was initiated by a Police Officer from the Sag Harbor Village Police Department and upon investigation it was determined that Mr. Timberlake was operating his vehicle in an intoxicated condition. Mr. Timberlake was placed under arrest, processed, and held overnight for morning arraignment. Mr. Timberlake was arraigned at the Sag Harbor Village Justice Court on June 18, 2024, at 9:30 AM where he was released on his own recognizance."
According to additional details from the report, the Police Officer claimed that Timberlake showed signs of intoxication including bloodshot and glassy eyes, a "strong odor of an alcoholic beverage" on his breath, an inability to divide attention, slowed speech and an unsteadiness afoot. "He performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests," the report states, noting that he allegedly refused to submit to a breathalyzer test.

On Sunday, Timberlake celebrated Father's Day by offering a glimpse into his private home life with Biel and their two children. The couple shares sons Silas, 9, and Phineas, 3.
"You’re so many things to so many people. But to us you are THE ROCK. The rock we climb on, we lean against. The rock that shades us from the sun. And when we recline on you, as we always do, hopefully our butts will keep you eternally grounded and warm. We LOVE YOU," Biel captioned a post in his honor.
The *NSYNC alum also shared a post on his Instagram page.
"My 2 greatest gifts," he wrote. "I learn more about myself everyday just because you both chose me to be your Daddy. I will always be there for you through your peaks and valleys… to lift you up and show you how high you can take this life and to pick you up when you fall. And, of course, to flood you with insufferable Dad-jokes all along the way. I love you both so much. Thank you for giving me my biggest purpose."
Timberlake also recently made headlines when he stopped a recent show after noticing a fan in need.
In a video shared on TikTok, Timberlake was at the climax of his hit song, "Cry Me A River," when he moved to the front of the stage and began pointing to the audience. Timberlake then looked to the side and motioned for someone to go where he is pointing -- making sure to stay engaged with the venue official until someone went to assist.
