While greeting the attendees of the American Century Celebrity Pro-Am in Lake Tahoe, Nevada on Saturday, Justin Timberlake was slapped by on the neck by one unruly spectator.

The "CAN'T STOP THE FEELING" singer, who was joined by Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry and "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" actor Alfonso Ribeiro, was making his way through the crowd with his security by his side when the spectator reached over the barrier to smack him. The 35-year-old Grammy winner did not take the incident lightly either.

He immediately turned around and yelled, "Bro, why would you do that?" The incident between Timberlake and the slaphappy spectator was caught on camera.

According to TMZ, "Law enforcement sources tell us he claimed he just wanted to 'touch' Justin and got overzealous." At first the tournament reps saw the event as a minor incident. As the Sheriff's deputies attempted to escort the suspect away from the golf course, the situation began to escalate. The man was reportedly intoxicated and refused to leave the premises. After being aggressive towards the authorities, the man was then arrested for disorderly conduct.

Timberlake has declined to press charges at the moment.

On a more positive note, Timberlake and Curry joined in with Alfonso Ribeiro to revive the "Carlton Dance," much to the crowd's entertainment.

Do you think Timberlake should press charges on the spectator for slapping him on the neck while attending the celebrity golf tournament?
