"Why would you do that!?"

Justin Timberlake participated in the American Century Celebrity Pro-Am in Lake Tahoe over the weekend and one spectator got a little too handsy with Timberlake as he made his way through the gallery. 

Video shows JT moving through a swarm of people during the tournament when a hand comes out of no where and creepily swipes him across his face. Stunned, Timberlake stopped dead in his tracks and screamed at the man, "Why would you do that!?"

After the incident, security was seen talking to the perpetrator but when they attempted to escort him from the course he refused, became hostile, and was arrested for disorderly conduct. 

Law enforcement reported that the man was drunk (shocking, I know) and said he 'just wanted to touch' Timberlake but was overwhelmed when he got within arms length of the pop star.

Tournament officials say Justin didn't have any marks on him (because he was barely touched) and doesn't plan on pressing any charges.
