According to reports, the "It's Showtime" host arrived with a female friend at the Police Community Precinct 7 in Taguig around 4 am on Sunday asking for assistance.
The singer-host, however, allegedly went berserk when he was told he'd be brought to the police headquarters.
He reportedly punched the female desk officer and even damaged a glass door, reason why the officers on duty had to arrest him.
Meanwhile, Billy has already apologized. In an interview with radio DZMM, here's what he said as quoted by abs-cbnnews.com:
“It was my fault pero wala akong nasaktan, wala akong tinulak, wala akong tinamaan kundi 'yung salamin,” he said.For more entertainment news, follow The Ultimate Fan on Facebook and Twitter.
“To be honest with you, I don’t see anything wrong with what I did. It was my fault for actually being aggressive. Buti na lang it didn’t happen in a bar, it didn’t happen anywhere else. It happened in a precinct. The reason why is because I knew for a fact I needed to be in a controlled environment. So as I said, I really apologize to the officers if I said anything derogatory or anything else,” he added.
Crawford, who admitted to have been drinking, explained that he went to the police station because he was “stressed out by certain situations.”
“You know when we are under the influence of alcohol, you just don’t really fake it. I don’t come from a background na to hide or to fake anything. It’s an aggression. I’m just really exhausted. I’m stressed out by certain situations. We try to be the best we are. We are not perfect. Ibig sabihin ng ‘Ayaw ko makasakit,’ I’m getting the aggression,” he said.
“And usually for me, when I’m angry, I’m not plastic. If there’s someone that speaks derogatorily to me or anything, reresbak ako. It’s my protection. That’s one of the reasons why I went to the prison and said, ‘Just please arrest me.’ Kasi I do not want to be drunk roaming around or making a fool out of myself which I am right now. That was it,” he added.
“When they put the handcuffs on me, I calmed down. When I sat down, I just… ewan ko. Ito ba 'yung pahinga na sinasabi ko na gusto ko,” he said. “I can’t contain myself if I’m under the influence of alcohol. Sasabihin ko nga that was the only thing that was wrong for me. I just really apologized.”
