MTV reports,

An American Airlines flight from Mexico City did arrive at Miami International Airport at 8:03 p.m. ET on October 28, which does align with the timing established in Jarre's tweets.

His photos from Tuesday also prove that his flight was real, even if the encounter with law enforcement might not have been.

Neither the Miami-Dade County Police or American Airlines have returned Business Insider's request for comment, but one thing is for certain: if you're ever in trouble, it may help to have millions of fans ready to do whatever it takes to lend you a hand (or a tweet.)
