Jeffrey Donovan, star of 'Burn Notice,' is in a bit of hot water after allegedly driving under the influence in Miami Beach last weekend.
Donovan, 41, was arrested on suspicion of a DUI on Sunday, July 12th after he was pulled over by a cop who noticed his suspicious driving.
In the police report obtained by TMZ, the arresting officer said he noticed Donovan after he heard "a loud tire screech behind me," and then saw Donovan's car swerve to the left to avoid hitting the police car.
When Donovan eventually stopped, he told the officer, "Sorry, I didn't see the red light or your stopped car." And after the officer, who smelled alcohol, asked Donovan if he had anything to drink that night, the actor replied "I had three drinks at the Fontainebleau."
Donovan failed a field sobriety test at the scene though he refused to take a breathalyzer test, and was then taken into custody.
"The only mistake I made tonight was drinking Benadryl with three glasses of wine," Donovan said at the time of his arrest. He posed for his mug shot, and was released several hours later.
No comment from Donovan's reps has been released.
