MIAMI BEACH, Fla. -- Singer Justin Bieber was arrested early Thursday for drag racing and DUI in Miami Beach, police said.
After his arrest, Bieber admitted to consuming alcohol and prescription medications and smoking marijuana, Miami Beach Police Chief Raymond Martinez said.
The incident happened at around 4 a.m. in the area of Pine Tree Drive and West 26th Street, Miami Beach Police Sgt. Bobby Hernandez said

Bieber, 19, was in a rented Lamborghini. He was pulled over along with another car. Bieber's car was being trailed by multiple SUVs when officers gave chase. He was driving north on Pine Tree Drive as such a high rate of speed it took police a significant distance to catch him.
Martinez said Bieber was "a little beligerent" with officers at the scene, questioning why he was stopped.
The officer who made the arrest said the cars were going approximately 55-60 mph in a 30 mph zone, Martinez said.
Bieber failed a sobriety test at the scene and was taken into custody, Hernandez said. The other driver, identified by police as rapper Crazy Khalil, was also arrested. No one was injured.
The teen pop star was booked into the Miami-Dade County Jail Thursday morning. He was charged with DUI, resisting arrest and driving with an expired Georgia license.
Bieber has been spotted in different places around Miami Beach the past few days, including a skate shop in a photo posted on Instagram.
The Opa-locka Police Department is also investigating an unauthorized escort of Bieber, a police spokesman said Wednesday.
The arrest is the latest brush with the law for Bieber. A neighbor in his Los Angeles neighborhood accused the singer of causing thousands of dollars of damage by throwing eggs at his home, leading detectives to raid Bieber's mansion in search of evidence. One person at the house was arrested on suspicion of drug possession.
In July, officials at the U.S.-Canada border seized marijuana and drug paraphernalia from one of the singer's tour buses. Bieber was not on that bus at the time.
