'Home Alone' star Culkin arrested on
drug charges
麦考利·库尔金,曾经主演“小鬼当家”而闻名世界的童星，最近因涉嫌携带毒品被警方逮捕
Former child star Macaulay Culkin has been arrested in
Oklahoma City on suspicion of possessing marijuana and a controlled substance,
police said on Saturday.
The star best known for his role of the ingenious child who fends off
burglars in the "Home Alone" movies, was arrested during a traffic stop on
Friday afternoon on a highway in the city.
Culkin, 24, was taken to jail when a police officer said he found the star in
possession of 17.3 grams (0.6 ounce) of marijuana and prescription drugs he
apparently obtained without a prescription. He was released on $4,000 bail on
Friday night, after spending about two hours in jail, the Oklahoma County
Sheriff's Department said.
Culkin, who recently starred in the movies "Saved!" and "Party Monster" did
not talk to reporters when he left the jail.
According to the arrest report, an Oklahoma City police officer pulled over a
car speeding on an interstate. Culkin was a passenger in the car driven by a man
from New York.
The officer asked Culkin and the driver to step out of the car after the
driver, identified as Brett M. Tabisel, had given the officer permission to
search the vehicle. The pair said they were driving from New York to Los
Angeles, according to the report.
A search of the car revealed marijuana, the anxiety relieving medication
Xanax as well as sleeping pills. The medication was in plastic sandwich bags
while some of the marijuana was in a metal cigarette box, the report said.
The officer said the two were cooperative with the search and quickly
surrendered the drugs.
Culkin's publicist, Michelle Bega, would not comment on the incident.
