Miles Teller has denied the news that he was arrested for "public drunkness" in San Diego on Sunday, despite the city's police department confirming the incident.
The Divergent star was allegedly taken to jail for four hours after being picked up by an officer who noticed that he “was showing signs of being under the influence of alcohol.”
In an official statement released by the San Diego police department, the same officer revealed that Teller was out partying with friends at the time but noted that the 30-year-old actor was "swinging from side to side, slurring words, and had bloodshot eyes,” when he spotted him. The officer then decided to take Teller in “based on him not being able to care for his own safety.”
He was taken to a detox centre to sober up but according to the statement, the Fantastic Four actor was “uncooperative with the volunteer staff,” which resulted in him being kicked out and arrested for public intoxication instead.
However, Teller has since denied the arrest. Taking to Twitter, he told his 556K followers not to believe everything they read - "especially from a third party entertainment news source trying to get clicks."
