Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

All started with popcorn. I'm 31 with a prior DUI weeks til my probation would be over...My boyfriend and another couple were out in SB with roundtrip train tickets to and from SB so that we can drink and be safe. We hop on train to return, my boyfriend see's a bag of popcorn with no owner and thinks its funny to eat some, train employee comes up behind, snags popcorn from him, popcorn is all over the place, calls cops and kicks us off train. Employee was being erratic. I lost my purse between looking for a seat and getting kicked off train. I told cops I needed to look for my purse, they refused, yet were upset that I didn't have identification though I gave them all info. They had all of us stay in a certain area, but while cops were doing there thing I walk away in the area to look for my purse, I wasn't running or trying to escape. They all put sirens and lights like I was seriously escaping and they took me in for 12 long hours! I was slurring but not being belligerent at all. I got a drunk in public 647. What will happen now that I broke probation? DUI was in Ventura...if it matters. What is my best move to stay away from jail!

And it ended with a night in the drunk tank. I doubt anything else bad will happen or that ir will mess up your probation.
