Police in the Hamptons community gave few details about the arrest of the singer, who was once among the most prominent stars in American popular music.
The singer and actor Justin Timberlake was arrested in Sag Harbor, N.Y., for charges related to driving while intoxicated, the police said.
Mr. Timberlake was expected to be arraigned on Tuesday morning.
Officials declined to provide further details about the arrest, why Mr. Timberlake was stopped or what kind of car he was driving.
Mr. Timberlake was once among the most prominent male stars in American music, but his most recent solo album, “Everything I Thought It Was,” was met with criticism and weaker than usual sales when it was released in March, becoming his first solo release to miss No. 1 since “Justified” in 2002.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
