You'd think Mickey Rourke getting busted on a DUI would only reaffirm the actor's badass reputation. Ditto that cops dubbed him "uncooperative" during the arrest. But the fact that he was collared while tooling around town on a mint green Vespa? That detail could hurt him.
The star of Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man was arrested for driving under the influence in Miami Beach early Thursday, after cops spotted him making an illegal U-turn on his trusty scooter. He spent several hours in the Miami-Dade County Jail before posting $1,000 bond.
According to the police report, Rourke was stopped at a red light at 4:11 a.m. and then proceeded to weave across the northbound side of the street "several times" before police pulled him over.
Per the report, Rourke greeted the officers with a cheery, "What the f--k did I do?"
Miami Beach police officer P. Socarras, who stopped the 55-year-old, described Rourke as having "a flushed face, bloodshot watery eyes, slurred speech and a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage on his breath."
Rourke apparently didn't see it that way.
"I'm not drunk," he told the officer, per the arrest report. "I didn't even drink that much."
According to the Palm Beach Post, which first reported Rourke's bust, the actor had just emerged from two hours inside the popular Miami Beach nightclub Mansion before his Vespa excursion.
Despite Rourke's protestation, Socarras proceeded to administer a standard field sobriety test "on a well-lit, dry, smooth, level surface." Despite the conditions, he "did not perform to standards."
At that point, Socarras called for backup, characterizing Rourke's behavior as "becoming uncooperative."
Rourke was hauled off to the Miami-Dade County Jail, where he barely exceeded the state's legal blood-alcohol limit, blowing a 0.081. The 9½ Weeks star was booked at 9:30 a.m.
His time in the facility is something of a homecoming for Rourke. According to the Post, the actor was also busted in Miami Beach back in January 1994, where he was tagged for resisting arrest.
