-

The 46-year-old actor was charged with one count of possession of marijuana and a traffic charge after being arrested by officers from the Mangham Police Department in Louisiana on Saturday. Mangham Police Chief Perry Fleming told The News-Star that Corey will have to pay a fine and he was released after being charged. Richland Parish Sheriff Gary Gilley that some other people in Corey’s entourage are facing other charges and were booked into the Richland Parish Jail for the night. Corey was due to perform at the Live Oaks Bar and Ballroom in Monroe as part of his ‘Heavenly US Angelic Tour’ but the performanc­e was axed. However, he took part in a meet and greet with fans at the venue. A message on the Live Oaks’ Facebook page stated: “Due to unforeseen circumstan­ces, the Corey Feldman show has been canceled. We would like to apologize for the cancellati­on. He will still be coming to hangout and it’s totally free.. share this post please guys!! (sic).” Meanwhile, Corey recently announced that he plans to “shed some light” on sexual harassment scandals in the wake of the allegation­s made against Harvey Weinstein. The former child star has previously claimed he was sexually abused by an unnamed Hollywood producer as a teenager, and in a lengthy rant on Twitter, he insisted he is working on a way to seek “actual justice” after having his career “shut down” by those who didn’t believe him. Whilst ‘The Goonies’ actor has still yet to name the producer who he claims harassed him, he has said he’s “glad” people are coming forward to shame 65-year-old Harvey Weinstein, who stands accused of sexually harassing over 40 women in a 30-year period.
