Tom sizemore arrested in drug probe
Troubled actor Tom Sizemore, who starred in hit films Saving Private Ryan and Black Hawk Down, was arrested in Los Angeles early on Tuesday in his latest brush with the law, the police said.
Sizemore, who was jailed in 2007 after violating the terms of a suspended sentence, was arrested in the early hours under a warrant issued when he failed to turn up for a court appearance in August.
After spending the night in custody the 49-year-old was released on $26,000 bail, according to jail records. A Los Angeles police spokesman said Sizemore was arrested in a drug-related investigation. No further details were available, but Sizemore told the TMZ celebrity news website that it was a mix-up related to a 2009 battery arrest.
