Crime & Arrests

Britney Spears enjoyed a mini celebration topped off with a cocktail just hours after her ex-BF Justin Timberlake was arrested for driving while intoxicated.

In a Tuesday night Instagram post, the pop star uploaded a photo of a mixed drink in a glass with a cherry garnish on the rim and a yellow flower petal floating in the liquid, which may or may not have contained alcohol. She wrote in the caption, "It's the little things you know."

Of course, Brit also posted a video of herself wearing 2 different dresses in a hotel room and striking various poses as music played in the background.

Justin Timberlake isn't losing any luster in the Hamptons with his DWI arrest -- the posh hotel where he drank before getting busted says the singer's legal issues won't prevent him from getting a table or a room.

As we've reported ... JT was dining with friends at The American Hotel in Sag Harbor, NY Monday night before getting arrested for allegedly driving drunk. He told cops he'd only had one martini before getting behind the wheel.

Ted Conklin, owner of The American Hotel, tells TMZ ... the property will welcome Justin back with open arms and they have no plans to ban him -- mainly because he was a model customer while there.

Morgan Wallen isn't the only person facing criminal charges for throwing chairs off buildings ... 'cause a guy in New York is accused of doing the same thing, which was caught on video.

Video of a wooden chair being thrown off a New York City high rise last week is making the rounds on social media -- and for good reason ... it's absolutely terrifying, and it wasn't the only thing this man allegedly chucked off the side.

The NYPD tells us they arrested a 33-year-old man from South Florida for allegedly throwing a chair from the 20th floor of a tall building in midtown Manhattan -- in addition to other pieces of furniture, which cops say he started chucking from a terrace.

Justin Timberlake is now a member of the celebrity mug shot club ... as his booking photo from jail has been released following his DWI arrest -- and he certainly looks bleary-eyed.

TMZ has obtained JT's mug shot -- released by Sag Harbor PD -- and it's certainly one for the books ... Justin is stoic here, not smiling and with an expressionless face as the camera flashed. His eyes are wide ... and he definitely looks like he's not happy to be there.

The singer was arrested on Monday evening after being pulled over by police in Sag Harbor, NY for driving while intoxicated. In a police report obtained by TMZ ... cops say they first spotted Justin after he blew through a stop sign. JT sparked further concern after his gray BMW UT was allegedly swerving on the road.

TMZ has found video that shows Justin Timberlake cruising down the street in Sag Harbor early Tuesday before he was pulled over by cops and arrested for DWI ... and based on what he told police, it appears he was following some friends who were leading the way.

Check out this footage we tracked down from surveillance cameras in the area ... it captures a black sedan heading south on Main Street -- a block away from the American Hotel, where Justin left moments earlier -- and a second or two later, you see JT's vehicle pop into frame.

The vehicle matches the description cops gave in their police report to a T -- a gray BMW UT -- and you can see Justin was following closely behind on the road ... not necessarily swerving or driving erratically, at least not in this clip anyway.

Justin Timberlake isn't shying away from the spotlight following his DWI arrest -- in fact, he's stepping right into it later this week ... 'cause he's all set to perform in the Windy City.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... JT will, in fact, perform in Chicago starting Friday -- which kicks off two tour dates there in town that were previously scheduled. We're told Justin has every intention to hit the stage in Chi-Town for both Friday and Saturday's shows.

No word on whether Justin will address the DWI arrest -- directly or indirectly -- but at the very least, we're told his fans can expect their regularly scheduled programming from him.

Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Isaiah Buggs was accused of dragging the mother of his child down a set of stairs and injuring her before his arrest on Sunday, TMZ Sports has learned.

According to court documents we obtained ... the woman told police Buggs broke into her Tuscaloosa, Ala. residence with a tire iron at around 5:28 AM -- and then went upstairs to confront her.

Tuscaloosa Police Dept. officers wrote in the docs the woman then claimed Buggs dragged her down the stairs ... causing her to break off several "clip-on toenails." They also state the woman had "scratch marks" on her wrist from the altercation.

Jessica Biel spent Monday working on her new show in NYC ... hours before her hubby Justin Timberlake was booked in the Hamptons for driving under the influence.

The actress was photographed in NYC filming the TV adaptation of Alafair Burke's novel "The Better Sister," alongside Elizabeth Banks and Corey Stoll. Ironically, the new show is a crime thriller ... which perhaps now hits a little close to home following JT's arrest.

Jessica's set was not too far from where Justin's arrest occurred ... and this seems to explain what JT was even doing in town. As it turns out, his wife was working nearby.

Young Thug feels he can't have a fair trial until the judge presiding over his case is promptly removed ... and he just filed the necessary paperwork to make it happen, officially.

TMZ Hip Hop obtained new court docs filed by Young Thug's lawyers on Monday -- calling for the outright disqualification and/or recusal of Judge Ural D. Glanville ... who's been handling his criminal case in Atlanta.

The incarcerated rap star's reasoning is about the same as that of his attorney Brian Steel -- who was held in contempt recently for questioning whether the judge had possibly engaged in misconduct.

Chrisean Rock getting arrested last week has already ended with her getting sentenced -- and she's gonna be doing some jail time ... not to mention having to answer to Oklahoma.

According to court records, obtained by TMZ Hip Hop, Chrisean was sentenced to 12 months probation and 30 days in jail as a result of the altercation that happened at Tamar Braxton's show in November ... when she was alleged to have attacked backup dancer James Wright.

As it turns out, there was an open warrant pertaining to that ... and now, she'll be behind bars for a bit -- although, she is getting 5 days of credit for time served.

Angelina Pivarnick isn't letting her legal woes stop her from having a good time ... 'cause she hit up a strip club -- where she was kinda the main attraction, and we have the proof.

The "Jersey Shore" star swung by Déjà Vu Gentlemen's Club in Kalamazoo, Michigan Saturday ... marking her first public appearance since getting arrested earlier this month.

Angelina wore faux leather leggings and a black lace top for her outing to the strip club where she judged the "Showgirl Of The Year" competition ... and from the looks of it, she was having a straight-up good time.

A huge demand for LEGOs and sky-high prices at retail stores are creating a growing black market in SoCal, where thieves are going to great lengths to jack LEGOs from stores.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... theft rings are marching into retailers like Target, Barnes & Noble and Walmart and stealing any and all things LEGO, and the crimes are getting more sophisticated by the day.

This ain't a smash-and-grab type job ... we're told some of the crews boosting LEGOs are now using counter-surveillance technology, plus getaway drivers and lookouts.

"Sandlot" star Tom Guiry, who played Smalls in the movie, got busted for throwing a strike ... but cops say he didn't hit his target with a baseball, he used a dumbbell!!!

TMZ obtained video of the alleged incident ... and it appears to show Tom tossing a huge weight on a car windshield, shattering it completely.

The footage is absolutely bonkers ... you see Tom bring the dumbbell behind his head and then drop it on a white Jeep ... before marching across two manicured front lawns to go back inside ... all while the dumbbell rolls down the hood.

A wild, deadly bus hijacking in Atlanta is stirring up some wild flashbacks for one of the actors from "Speed."

As we reported, a madman in Atlanta hijacked a city bus, which he used to lead police on an unbelievable high-speed chase ... and, during which he allegedly shot and killed a passenger.

Hawthorne James, who played bus driver Sam Silver in the 1994 blockbuster, tells TMZ ... he was shocked watching footage of the Atlanta bus bouncing off cars.

It all gave him some serious déjà vu, but, of course, he acknowledges the major difference is Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock and himself always knew they were safe.

Surveillance footage of a group of 20 people shamelessly raiding a Bay Area jewelry store in broad daylight has been released -- with the chaos ending in a police chase and arrests.

Check out this wild clip -- the crew, decked out in full black ops gear, swarmed into PNG Jewelers in Sunnyvale, CA Wednesday with hammers and tools in hand ... and made quick work of the display cases, snatching up a hefty haul of bling before taking off.

The Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety (DPS) disclosed the suspects made a getaway in multiple vehicles before officers arrived. However, the responding officers lucked out -- they managed to spot 2 of the fleeing vehicles in the act.

Blueface's mom Karlissa Saffold hates to see her family crumbling under the weight of the legal system -- but says she's going to hold it down until everyone is free!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Karlissa in Hollywood on the heels of Chrisean Rock's surprising arrest earlier this week at Blueface's court hearing -- a move Karlissa calls "bad timing" on the part of the authorities.

She says the entire world knew Chrisean had a warrant, but for cops to act on it while Chrisean was purely in court to support Blueface was a low blow.
