According to Page Six, the action star, who plays Falcon in Marvel's Captain America franchise, argued there was no justification for his arrest. Speaking on his behalf, Mackie's attorney, Mike Miller, said, "It's clear that the mere smell of alcohol and bloodshot eyes doesn't give the officers justification to arrest him."

Mackie was pulled over in Harlem in November 2013, after cops spotted the tinted windows on his Dodge Challenger. Upon further inspection, police claimed that the actor had bloodshot eyes and the smell of alcohol on his breath. Further suspicions were made when he refused the breathalyzer test.

Regardless of those signs, one officer admitted that Mackie had clear speech and was polite and neatly dressed, completely contrasting with the arresting cop's reports on the incident.
