Pot bust: Crawford out on bail

HOLLYWOOD heartthrob Chace Crawford, star of US television drama "Gossip Girl," was arrested early Friday morning outside Dallas, Texas, for possession of marijuana, police said.

A report from the police department in Plano, Texas, a suburb north of Dallas, said Crawford was arrested just before 1am with under two ounces of marijuana.

No further details were given, and a police spokesman said he did not know exactly how much marijuana Crawford had.

The spokesman said Crawford posted bail and was released. He faces a maximum of up to 180 days in jail and a US$2,000 fine if convicted of the misdemeanor crime.

On hit show "Gossip Girl," Crawford, 24, portrays young Nate Archibald who lives a life of privilege in the scheming world of rich kids on Manhattan's Upper East Side.

He has been one of the series' breakout stars and this summer, he will appear in the movie "Twelve" portraying a young man who sells marijuana to teenage New Yorkers.

Crawford was born in Lubbock, Texas, but raised in Plano. The police report lists his current home as New York City and his full name as Christopher Chace Crawford.
