Rourke was pulled over by Miami Beach police officer Peter Socarras in November after the officer reportedly spotted him weaving all over the road on his Vespa scooter.

Rourke was initially booked for driving under the influence, but authorities later acknowledged that the breathalyzer test was inaccurate. They then tested him on a second machine which showed Rourke was just under the legal limit.

But Rourke is speaking out about the way the Socarras treated him at the time of the arrest saying, ""I'm friends with most cops in the city and they told me the guy who got me isn't even liked by his colleagues. He's a 400-pound f**k unfit for duty.

"I said to him: 'F**k you, I'm not drunk.' I guess he didn't like that. They started on me at the station with the pencil in front of my eyes. Then they gave me the breath thing, like, seven times. And it always came out under the limit. I had two drinks hours before they stopped me."

The DUI charge is expected to be officially dropped by the Miami Beach District Attorney.
