Timberlake, 43, was arrested in connection with drunken driving. Source said he was told by police officer not to drive and did anyway. READ MORE:New details have surfaced about Justin Timberlake 's arrest Tuesday in New York ’s Hamptons, with reports alleging the singer was warned not to drive by the same police officer who wound up arresting him, and that police might have been tipped off to the singer getting behind the wheel.

The police officer believed that 'that was the end of it' and that Timberlake 'would get a ride home' before seeing Timberlake again behind the wheel 'several minutes later,' a source told the outlet. Timberlake, who has been on tour since April, was arrested when the officer stopped him and determined he was intoxicated, according to a court document reviewed by the AP.

The restaurateur told the outlet they believe Timberlake had been 'mistreated' and was 'definitely treated unfairly' in the unfolding series of events that led to him being taken into custody.Timberlake has always been 'a gentleman' while out in the Hamptons, the restaurateur said, citing his kindness to fans.

'Leo does not like to be recognized, and he will even curse. He does not take pictures, especially if he is with a bunch of models,' the restaurateur said. Sobriety tests include being asked to walk heel-to-toe in a straight line and turn and retrace the steps or stand on one leg.The police officer 'was so young that he didn't even know' who Timberlake was' and 'didn't recognize him or his name,' a source told Page Six on Tuesday

Timberlake was arraigned on one count of DWI, as well as running a stop sign and failing to stay in his lane. He is next in court on July 26.One witness claimed to The New York Post the singer had been 'wasted' before his DWI bust and was even seen drinking someone else's drink from another table. Fans made jokes about the size of the martini glass and his famous dance moves came back to haunt him after he failed the field sobriety test.
