'You're About to Find Out Who I Am!' REESE WITHERSPOON
AFRIK UPDATE
Below is Reese released statement,
saying,
"Out of respect for the
ongoing legal situation, I cannot comment on everything that is being reported
right now. But I do want to say I clearly had one drink too many and I am
deeply embarrassed about the things I said. It was definitely a scary situation
and I was frightened for my husband, but that was no excuse. I was
disrespectful to the officer who was just doing his job. I have nothing but
respect for the police and I am very sorry for my behavior."
The arrests went down in Atlanta early Friday morning. Cops say they spotted Reese and her husband Jim Toth's car -- a silver Ford Fusion -- weaving in and out of lanes, so they pulled them over.
As officers dealt with Jim, Reese allegedly started acting up, telling cops, "Do you know my name?" The officer answered by saying, "No, I don't need to know your name."
Witherspoon then came back with, "You're about to find out who I am ... You are going to be on national news."

During Jim's arrest, Reese allegedly became ornery, demonstrating visual and verbal frustration over how long it was taking to arrest her husband. At one point, she got out of her car and the officer ordered her back inside. When she got out a second time, he arrested her for disorderly conduct, a municipal ordinance.
They were both taken to jail, booked, and released a short time later.
The officer in the report described him by saying his "eye lids were droopy" and his eyes were "blood shot and watery." The officer said he smelled a "strong odor" of alcohol coming from Toth.
The officer stated that Toth told him he only had one drink, but as first reported by Variety when given a Breathalyzer test, Toth's blood alcohol level was .139.
