Tiffany Haddish was pictured in new video and photos showing her arrest early on Friday morning.
The 43-year-old Girls Trip star was seen being escorted into a police squad car after she was taken into custody for a DUI arrest.
Responding officers reportedly discovered her asleep behind the wheel of her car, which was still running and in the middle of the busy Beverly Drive.
This is a second DUI arrest for the star, who was previously found sleeping in her car in Georgia in January 2022.
DailyMail.com did not immediately hear back from Tiffany's reps to comment on the situation.

Serious: TMZ previously reported that she was found asleep in her car in the middle of the busy street Beverly Drive; seen in September
Haddish was dressed in a red-and-white floral sleeveless blouse with a ruffled front, which was the same top that she wore the night before at the comedy club The Laugh Factory on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood.
She was performing as part of the club's 43rd annual free Thanksgiving feast for the community.
The stand-up star didn't appear to have changed any part of her outfit, as she also had on the same slim black pants that she wore on stage, as well as black sneakers.
Video taken from a nearby vehicle shows Haddish being walked from one squad car to another with police officers standing on either side of her.
Her hands are held behind her back, and as she reaches the vehicle she turns toward it, revealing that she has been handcuffed.
The officer closest to the car then helps her into it, and a third officer joins the two after closing the car's trunk.
Haddish appeared to maintain a black expression during the rest and didn't look visibly upset.
The officer accompanying her didn't appear to have any concerns about her, as she stood without any of them holding on to her while she waited for them to open the car door.
Her arrest was previously reported by TMZ.

The location of her arrest was particularly shocking, as her car was found running in the middle of the busy street Beverly Drive, which is filled with stores including Pottery Barn and Sephora.
The call to police came at about 5:45 a.m. from a concerned citizen who was worried about the actress sleeping in her car in the early morning hours. Haddish was reportedly 'slumped over the wheel while the car was running,' the site claimed.
She was cited for a DUI and is expected to be released from custody later today.
The site said her arrested was 'peaceful' with no resistance.
Before she fell asleep at the wheel of her car, Tiffany was trying to make people laugh.
She had performed a stand-up set at The Laugh Factory on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood for the club's 43rd annual free Thanksgiving feast for the community.
The Laugh Factory is about a 15-minute drive from Beverly Hills.
This is not the first time she has been arrested for falling asleep behind the wheel of a car.
In January 2022 she was arrested under a similar circumstance for a DUI in Peachtree City, Georgia.

The Night School actress was found 'dozing in the driver's seat' of her car, according to TMZ.
Soon after her mug shot was released where the star could be seen smiling as she wore her hair in a short blond buzz cut as she went makeup free.
The star has been in Georgia to shoot the film Haunted Mansion with co-stars Owen Wilson and Rosario Dawson for Walt Disney Productions.
Officers told the site they believed that she had been smoking marijuana.
The site also looked at her arrest record which noted she had posted $1,666 to bond to get out of jail around 6:30 AM.
The arrest took place around 4 a.m. Eastern Time in Georgia, it was claimed.
Police approached the star's vehicle after a concerned citizen had called about a woman sleeping in her car.
After officers woke her up, she was arrested for suspicion of a DUI as well as stopping on a roadway in a manner that was not safe for traffic.

Apparently Tiffany - who split from musician Common in November 2021 - had not properly pulled off the road for her nap.
It was also claimed that when police officers spotted her vehicle, she was just pulling off the road. By the time they looked in her window, she had already been resting, it was alleged.
Haddish was arrested by Peachtree City PD officers, police told the site. Peachtree City is the largest city in Fayette County, Georgia.
Tiffany was taken to police headquarters and was in custody for 'a few hours,' according to the site. She seemed to be in custody from 4 am to 6:30 am.
