this is just a general description of his arrest from wikipedia:
At 9:15 pm PDT the night of Gibson's arrest, TMZ.com posted a detailed account of Gibson's arrest, transport to the station, and time in custody. The website quoted an anonymous law enforcement source and posted four pages of a handwritten arrest report.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-4>
[5]</SUP> TMZ claimed that the documents were part of the original eight-page report written by the arresting officer Deputy James Mee<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-5>
[6]</SUP> before he was allegedly instructed by his superiors to omit the inflammatory details about Gibson's alleged
anti-Semitic comments and abusive behavior.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-tmzcover_6-0>
[7]</SUP> The leaked report alleges that Gibson stated, "Fucking Jews...Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world" and asked Deputy Mee, "Are you a Jew?"<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-tmzcover_6-1>
[7]</SUP> The report further alleges that Gibson refused to enter the patrol car and had to be handcuffed.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-tmzcover_6-2>
[7]</SUP> He also allegedly claimed to "own" the city of
Malibu, California. According to the report, Gibson's
blood alcohol content was measured at 0.12% (the legal blood alcohol level limit for driving in
California is 0.08%).<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-tmzcover_6-3>
[7]</SUP> Booked at 4:06am PDT, Gibson was released 5 hours later, around 9am PDT.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-WND_0-1>

A day after Gibson's
July 29 apology, the
Los Angeles Times and
The New York Times reported that unnamed sources confirmed to them that the leaked documents were authentic.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-7>
[8]</SUP><SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-8>
[9]</SUP> The
Associated Press later reported that the official arrest report would cite the anti-Semitic comments.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-9>
[10]</SUP> The authenticity of the leaked arrest report was neither confirmed nor denied by the
Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, but the Department denied that a cover-up had taken place.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-10>

TMZ.com filed a formal request under the California Public Records Act to receive a copy of the audiotape of the arrest. To date, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department has declined to release the tape, citing the investigative records exemption, which permits otherwise public records to be withheld if there is an ongoing investigation.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-11>

[14]</SUP> Although three videotapes were used in an attempt to record Mel Gibson at the station, the tapes were either defective or missing. A Sheriff’s Department member claimed that a supervisor had deliberately erased one of the tapes because of inappropriate remarks made by department personnel. The Office of Independent Review of the L.A.S.D. could not find sufficient evidence to prove intentional erasures.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-aolcdn.com_14-0>
