‘American Idol’ Contestant Dimitrius Graham Arrested in Los Angeles

“American Idol” finalist Dimitrius Graham was arrested in Los Angeles Sunday and booked on a trespassing charge … TMZ has learned.

The head-turning incident was caught on video … and shows Graham being cuffed by officers on an LA Metro train as you hear him yelling out about what is happening to him. The singer — who also appeared on “The Voice” — says he was unable to show his train ticket because his phone died … but was barred from exiting the train to get a physical ticket and instead taken away to the clink.

He reposted the video on his own social media page, and also hopped online to share an update after claiming to be locked up behind bars for 24 hours.

In his video, Graham claimed he lost a veneer and suffered a fractured wrist from the incident … calling the whole ordeal “crazy” — especially over a $1.75 fare he claims he paid.
