William Levy arrested in South Florida for disorderly intoxication and trespassing
Once a heartthrob of Latin American television, William Levy now faces legal trouble in Florida — a story blending fame, controversy, and an uncertain future.
Cuban-American actor William Levy was arrested on April 14, 2025, in Weston, Florida, for disorderly intoxication and trespassing on an occupied property. He was taken into custody by Broward County Sheriff’s deputies and booked into the county’s main jail in Fort Lauderdale. Levy is expected to appear before a bond court judge in the coming hours.
Levy's arrest follows years of reported domestic incidents and could carry jail time under Florida law.
Under Florida law, public disturbance while intoxicated can lead to up to 60 days in jail, while trespassing on occupied property carries a penalty of up to one year in prison. Both offenses are classified as misdemeanors. Legal proceedings will determine the consequences for the actor.
The arrest comes amid past reports of domestic conflicts between Levy and his ex-partner, actress Elizabeth Gutiérrez. Police were reportedly called to their shared home in Southwest Ranches on multiple occasions in recent years, adding context to the current situation.
