Actor Corey Feldman received a drug-related misdemeanour in Louisiana this weekend, describing the arrest as a “good ol’ shakedown”.
Whilst touring with his band, Corey Feldman & The Angels, the Goonies star was pulled over for speeding in an recreational vehicle in Mangham, Louisiana, KNOE reports.
After discovering that the vehicle’s licence was suspended, Feldman and his crew were taken to the police station.
One police officer smelt marijuana and decided to search the vehicle, discovering a medical prescription for the drug belonging to the crew.
The crew were then forced to pay a fine, with Feldman receiving a misdemeanor due to it being his vehicle. See Feldman’s full explanation of events in the tweets below.
