Oh Warrick Brown... I'm ashamed to share a last name with you

'CSI' co-star Gary Dourdan arrested for drugs

By DERRIK J. LANG, AP Entertainment Writer



LOS ANGELES (AP) — "CSI" co-star Gary Dourdan was arrested Monday for possession of narcotics and dangerous drugs, police said. The 41-year-old actor was found asleep in his car by the Palm Springs Police Department, authorities said.

An officer saw Dourdan's car parked on the wrong side of the street with the interior light on and someone sleeping in the driver's seat at approximately 5:12 a.m. Monday, according to Palm Springs police Sgt. Mitch Spike.

The officer described Dourdan as disoriented and possibly under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The officer arrested Dourdan after locating suspected cocaine, heroin, Ecstacy, miscellaneous prescription drugs and paraphernalia. Dourdan was released on $5,000 bail at 10:30 a.m. Monday. A court date was not immediately scheduled.

Dourdan has played crime scene investigator Warrick Brown on CBS' "CSI" since 2000. Several celebrities were in town for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in nearby Indio, Calif. It was not immediately clear whether Dourdan attended the event.

Representatives for Dourdan did not immediately return phone calls Tuesday.

Ahh, Warrick, after all the second chances Grissom has given you have you learned nothing? I'm so ashamed. And you better get it together before this affects my weekly CSI fix. Also, $5,000 bail? Granted I've never been arrested for drug possession, but it seems like thats cheap after finding cocaine, heroin, Ecstacy, and miscellaneous prescription drugs and paraphernalia. Oh well, what do I know.
