Gym Class Heroes drummer speaks about arrest

Gym Class Heroes star Matt McGinley has spoken about his arrest.

As previously reported the drummer was apprehended on March 12 in Mexico.

In a statement McGinley wrote: "This is Matt McGinley from the band Gym Class Heroes. I was hoping you could relay to the internet world that I was released from Mexican jail about an hour ago.

“Basically, I partied a little too hard on Sunday night and, when I started to feel sick, left my band to walk back to the hotel...In my drunkenness, I staggered into what I thought was my hotel room and fell asleep in a chair.

“Several hours later I awoke to a room full of screaming 'Policia', as I had accidentally wandered into some dude's condominium and passed out. They hauled me off to jail where I spent the following 32 hours in a complete, sweaty boredom for trespassing. It sucked. I'm flying back to the states tomorrow to meet back up with the band and continue the 'Darryl Hall For President Tour'."
