Haley Joel Osment was arrested last week at a California ski resort, USA TODAY confirms.
“The Sixth Sense” and “Forrest Gump” actor was arrested April 8 on charges of disorderly conduct for public alcohol intoxication and possession of cocaine at Mammoth Mountain Ski Area resort in Mammoth Lakes, California, Mono County District Attorney David Anderson said in an April 17 statement.
Sergeant Jason Heilman of the Mammoth Lakes Police Department confirmed to People magazine and Entertainment Weekly that Osment is no longer in custody.
Osment was described as an “unruly skier,” according to a Mammoth Lakes Police Department media bulletin. People magazine reports the incident is still under investigation, and the Mono County District Attorney’s Office said the actor will be arraigned on July 7.
USA TODAY has reached out to Osment’s reps, as well as the Mammoth Lakes Police Department and Mono County Sheriff’s Office.

At the time of his arrest, Osment, a Los Angeles native, was days away from his 37th birthday.
The “Blink Twice” actor has had previous run-ins with law enforcement. In 2018, media outlets reported the actor was involved in an argument at a Las Vegas airport on Super Bowl Sunday, with police being called to respond to an “unruly passenger.”
There was also a 2006 arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol and misdemeanor drug possession, in an incident where he suffered a broken rib. The then-18-year-old Osment pleaded no contest and was sentenced to three years of probation, 60 hours in an alcohol rehabilitation program, attendance at Alcoholics Anonymous and a $1,500 fine.

Osment, who previously lived in Altadena near Eaton Canyon, lost his home in the Los Angeles fires. He told Abe Streep, Meryl Streep‘s nephew, in a larger feature for New York magazine that he lost “500 records and a piano his parents had given him when he turned 18.”
The former child actor has increasingly done voice work in recent years, including for “Family Guy” and other TV shows including the Star Wars animated series “Young Jedi Adventures” and the Peacock and Dreamworks series “Megamind Rules!”
