The hits simply hold coming for Teen Mom 2 alum Nathan Griffith.
As we’ve been reporting, Griffith (pictured above, in a separate mugshot and through his 2013-15 run on MTV) was arrested in Las Vegas earlier this month after allegedly strangling “a family member” throughout a home dispute.
Then, only a day later, his sister Heather Griffith got here ahead to disclose that she was the member of the family concerned. According to Heather herself, Jenelle Evans‘ controversial ex “tried to kill” her after getting drunk in her Sin City residence and attacking her whereas her husband was gone.
And now, we’re studying there may be much more to this unhappy and unlucky current run of terrible occasions…

On Monday, the US Sun obtained a police report indicating the 35-year-old MTV alum was arrested in Miami, Florida early final month. Per that report, Nathan was on Miami Beach along with his spouse May Oyola at round 7:00 pm native time on June 1 when calls began coming in to 911 about ” a disturbance between a male and a feminine.”
Officers reportedly discovered Griffith and Oyola arguing in a automobile. According to the report detailing responding officers’ observations, Griffith was within the driver’s seat of the automobile throughout the incident:
“The driver was seen by officers sitting in the driver’s seat of the vehicle with the vehicle turned on and in park. Officers could smell the odor of alcohol emanating from the interior of the vehicle and from the defendant’s person.”
Uh-oh…
At that time, Oyola instructed cops she witnessed the one-time Teen Mom 2 persona drink “several alcoholic beverages” each in individual and on FaceTime all through that day.
So, cops pulled Griffith out of the automobile and requested him to do some discipline sobriety exams. Per the police affidavit, these exams apparently didn’t go effectively:
“The defendant exhibited slurred speech, glossy eyes and a flushed face indicative of a person under the influence of alcohol. … [He] failed to keep proper balance when conducting the walk and turn on one leg stand test and was unable to listen to instructions provided by Officer prior to conducting the testing.”
Upon failing these exams, cops took Griffith into custody and transported him to an area Miami PD precinct. Sadly, although, the drama didn’t finish there. Cops famous this in regards to the switch of their report, too:
“The defendant was combative and irate during the transport striking the back cage of the patrol vehicle with his forehead.”
Oof…
Once on the station, Nathan first refused to exit the cop automobile. Then, per the police notes, Griffith allegedly “refused to submit to a breath test” as a part of the DUI investigation, too. He was finally charged with driving beneath the affect, driving with a knowingly suspended license, and booked into jail.

Other officers again on the scene of the preliminary interplay examined Griffith’s automobile whereas he was detained. In it, they reportedly discovered fairly an unsettling merchandise:
“[They found] an empty bottle of Tito’s vodka inside a black bag in the passenger side floorboard. The cap to the bottle was located on the driver’s side floorboard.”
That is an particularly disheartening element as a result of, as it’s possible you’ll recall, Heather Griffith referenced Tito’s Vodka by title when explaining final week to The US Sun how binge ingesting has been on the heart of Nathan’s struggles.
She instructed that outlet final Friday:
“It’s the binge drinking, that’s what he does. He’s a binge drinker. He’ll drink for like a week or two, like one to two bottles of Tito’s every single day. And then he’ll just quit — he’ll get in some kind of trouble or run out of money and then quit and then he does it all over again.”
Ugh.
All we will hope at this level is that Nathan will get skilled assist for all this.
And clearly that he doesn’t harm his sister, Oyola, or anybody else round from right here on out. So unhappy…
