Clavicular is addressing his arrest for battery for the first time … but, he’s not apologizing for his alleged actions — he’s calling out the cops for how they treated him.

The live streamer — real name Braden Eric Peters — opened up to Akademiks about ending up in the clink on his Kick channel … first telling fans this was a real event — not some scripted BS.

Clavicular says he wanted to avoid the media frenzy waiting for him once he was released from his overnight stay in the Big House … but, he claims cops at the Broward County Jail told him he couldn’t wait inside.

Clip farmers were waiting to pounce on him, Clavicular says … and he expressed his distaste for teenagers trying to use him for clout — while saying his run-ins with those types of crowds made it easier to handle the media waiting for him outside the jail.

As we told you … Clavicular was arrested in Fort Lauderdale Thursday for misdemeanor battery after cops say he instigated a fight between his girlfriend and another woman to “exploit” them on social media.

Sources close to Clavicular have told us he didn’t instigate a fight between the two women … and, instead, they say the alleged victim is simply looking for some noteriety. They also say Clavicular is autistic and was unsure of what to do when the fight broke out — which is why he behaved as he did.

Prior to his arrest, Clavicular shared video of himself cruising through the Florida Everglades on an airboat … during which he pulled out a handgun and put a bunch of bullets into a dead alligator.
