News from www.AllHipHop.com and Mike Winslow - Timbaland was arrested this past Sunday in Cologne, Germany, after he and and other men allegedly attacked a bar patron. The incident occurred in front of the Hotel Intercontinental shortly after Justin Timberlake concert at the Cologne Arena. The fight apparently started because a severely drunk man became irate Timbaland was speaking to his girlfriend and started spewing profanity at him including the "N" word. Timbaland left and heated exchange of words continued while Timbaland was signing autographs outside, resulting in Timbaland and his security pummeling the man who was reportedly sent to a local E.R. with throat and back injuries. Police arrived to arrest Timbaland and his entourage on charges of causing bodily injury; Timbaland was released later on bond of $750 euro.
