Cuban ‘Brad Pitt’, actor William Levy arrested in Florida for intoxication and trespassing
Actor William Levy, known as ‘Cuban Brad Pitt’ was arrested in Florida on charges of intoxication in a public place, causing disturbance and trespassing. According to reports, he was arrested by the Broward Sheriff’s office. The news became public on Tuesday though the arrest was made on Monday after the police released his mugshot. During a hearing on Tuesday bond was set at $250 for each count. No expected release date or projected sentence has been listed in the jail system as of Tuesday.
Levy is a huge star in Latin America and has appeared in several telenovelas alongside Hollywood hits such as ‘Girls Trip’ and ‘Resident Evil: The Final Chapter’.
Reports indicate the incident occurred near his home in the affluent Southwest Ranches neighborhood, though specific details about the events leading to his arrest remain limited.
Levy, who has a history of personal controversies, including publicized domestic disputes with his former partner, actress Elizabeth Gutiérrez, was described as appearing emotional and disheveled in his booking photo. He is currently awaiting arraignment, with no public statements released by him or his legal team as of now.
The arrest has sparked discussion online, with some expressing shock given Levy’s public image as a family-oriented star who frequently shares moments with his two teenage children, Christopher and Kailey, on social media. Neither of his children has commented publicly on the incident.
This event adds to a challenging period for Levy, whose high-profile split from Gutiérrez in 2024 drew significant attention. While the full context of the arrest is unclear, it marks a notable setback for the actor, whose career has spanned both Spanish- and English-language entertainment over the past two decades.
