Newsflash from your Hollywood Attorney:
In Miami Justin pleaded Not Guilty to DUI, Drag Racing between a Lamborghini and a Ferrari and acknowledged smoking marijuana plus taking an unknown prescription medication.
Bieber was given four alcohol breath tests, with the first two not usable because of insufficient volume of breath.
The third test, administered at 5:37 a.m., showed an alcohol reading of .014 and a fourth, at 5:40 a.m., came up at .011. Both are under the .02 limit in Florida for a driver under the legal drinking age of 21. The limit for drivers above that age is .08.
Police also obtained a urine sample from Bieber but the results of tests have not been released. If it shows the presence of THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, or certain prescription drugs, legal experts say could still be grounds for a DUI.
Another police document described Bieber as "excited, talkative, profanity, cooperative, insulting, and cocky" and noted that he had a pronounced odor of alcohol on his breath, bloodshot eyes and a flushed face. During DUI field tests, officers noted that Bieber could not walk heel-to-toe as instructed, had trouble turning without losing his balance and could not smoothly follow a moving object with his eyes.
Regarding the marijuana, one officer said he noticed a strong smell of the drug while Bieber was sitting in the back of a police car. The officer asked Bieber about it.
"Yeah, we were smoking all night at the studio," the report quotes Bieber as replying.
As for the prescription drugs, Bieber told police he didn't know what they were but they were for treatment of anxiety.
"Well, my mom takes care of all that stuff for me," he said, according to the report.
The alcohol breath tests for Sharieff, meanwhile, came up .00 and he was also gave a urine sample, according to police.
Toronto, Canada
Canadian pop star Justin Bieber has surrendered to Toronto police to face charges he assaulted a limousine driver in December.
Bieber, 19, was greeted at the station by a frenzy of television crews, news photographers - and screaming teenage fans.
He was booked less than a week after he was arrested in Florida and accused of drink-driving and other charges.
His management team have not responded to requests for comment.
On the evening of the alleged incident in Toronto, the Ontario-born pop star attended a Maple Leafs hockey game, Canadian broadcaster CBC reported.
Police officials say Mr Bieber will appear in court at a later date.
Also on Wednesday, a petition requesting Mr Bieber's expulsion from the US that was filed on a White House website by a member of the public gained 100,000 signatures.
The US president has no power to order an individual's deportation, and it is unclear whether the White House would respond to the petition.
In the early morning hours on Thursday, Mr Bieber was arrested in Miami Beach after a police officer pulled him over on suspicion he was racing a hired yellow Lamborghini on a public street.
Police estimated he and a member of his entourage who was also arrested were driving at 55mph (88.5km/h) in a 30mph zone flanked by apartment buildings, a school, a youth centre and a golf course.
Suspecting he was intoxicated, the officer arrested him. Mr Bieber was also charged with resisting arrest and driving on an expired licence.
After appearing in front of a Florida judge last week via teleconference, while wearing orange jail clothing and with his hands clasped in front of him, Mr Bieber posted bail of $2,500 (£1,500).
White House weighs petition to deport Justin Bieber
But State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki cautioned that the petition program "doesn't always determine a step will be taken, it's more of another opportunity for the voices of the American people to be heard."
