Tennis star Bernard Tomic got a little too rowdy at a hotel party in Miami Beach, as local police arrested the Australian athlete after responding to noise complaints at his penthouse suite at the W South Beach Hotel on Friday.
Miami Beach police received multiple noise complaints about the loud music and noise coming from the 22-year-old tennis stud's penthouse, according to a report obtained by TMZ. Hotel security approached Tomic's room and asked him to tone it down, but Tomic allegedly refused, "pointed his finger aggressively" and slammed the door in the guards' faces.
Hotel officials then called the cops to evict Tomic and his friends from the room, and police told everyone to pack up and leave or face arrest. Tomic allegedly refused to leave, and police arrested the 6-foot-4, 210-pound athlete.
Tomic was charged with two misdemeanors, resisting arrest without violence and trespassing, according to the Associated Press. He was supposed to play in the Davis Cup tennis quarterfinal in Australia against Kazakhstan on the day he got arrested, but he was suspended from the match after making comments about performance director Pat Rafter.
The young tennis star told CBS Miami that he regretted the way he acted in the hotel room last week.
"It was definitely my fault, what happened," he said. "I was asleep on several occasions when they complained at first but it was just a noise complaint but like I said, I'm sorry for the police and the noise I caused."
