Sixty-seven-year-old actor Ryan O誰eal and his son Redmond,
23, were arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of drug possession during a routine
check of Redmond, who was already on probation for previous drug charges.
The drug, which is believed to by methamphetamine, was found
on Redmond痴 person during a probation sweep made by the police to make sure the
actor痴 son, who was arrested in June also on possession of meth, stayed clean.
O誰eal senior was arrested along with his son after further searches turned up
a vial of drugs in his bedroom.
Neither the father nor his son appeared to be under the
influence of drugs at the time of arrest, and both of them were released from
custody after paying $10,000 in bail.
Ryan O誰eal first became famous playing in the 1960s soap
opera Peyton Place, and later earned an Oscar nomination for his role in the
film Love Story, for which he is the most well known.
The O誰eal family has had a history of troubled times as
aside from Redmond痴 drug bust in June, his dad and half-brother got in a
notorious brawl last year (apparently also over the issue of drugs), and his
half-sister Tatum O誰eal was also busted for trying to buy heroin in New York.
Redmond
is the son of Ryan O誰eal and actress Farah Fawcett, aged 61, with whom the
actor has had an on-and-off relationship for many years. Tatum痴 and her brother
Griffin痴 mother
is actress Joanna Cook Moore.
