Police say he stepped into traffic to film content, with booking records showing a $3,500 bond was submitted.

Overview

  • Miami-Dade booking records list three counts: possession of a controlled substance (amphetamine), possession of 20 grams or less of cannabis, and resisting arrest, with booking recorded at 8:48 a.m. on Nov. 15.
  • Arrest documents describe officers finding half of an orange oval pill marked "3," consistent with a Schedule II amphetamine, plus three hand-rolled suspected cannabis cigarettes weighing about 4 grams in total.
  • Police reports say the detention followed a 3:12 a.m. incident on Washington Avenue in Miami Beach in which Doherty positioned himself in active lanes to create video content and refused repeated commands to leave the roadway.
  • The Miami Beach Police Department issued a public-safety statement emphasizing enforcement regardless of celebrity status and accountability for conduct that endangers others.
  • Hours before the arrest, Doherty shared yacht footage and pointed followers to a Parti livestream, as coverage noted his large online following and history of stunt-driven content.
