Oscar-Nominated Actor Faces Charges From CA Ski Resort Arrest

MAMMOTH LAKES, CA— Oscar-nominated actor Haley Joel Osment is facing charges following an arrest at Mammoth Lakes ski resort.

The Mono County District Attorney's office announced the misdemeanor charges of public intoxication and cocaine possession Thursday against the 37-year-old actor best known for his childhood roles in “The Sixth Sense,” “Forrest Gump” and “A.I.”

According to the Mono County District Attorney David Anderson, Osment was arrested at the ski resort on suspicion of public intoxication. He had been detained by resport ski patrol when police arrived.

The actor is due to be arraigned on July 7.

He's been having a difficult year. He was among the thousands of people who lost their homes in January's devastating Eaton Fire in the Altadena area near Los Angeles. TMZ reported that he recently found a replacement home, but his insurer denied the claim.

His representative did not immediately return a message seeking comment on the charges Thursday.

Osment rose to fame and received a best supporting actor Oscar nomination for starring opposite Bruce Willis in M. Night Shyamalan's thriller “The Sixth Sense.” Two years later he starred in Steven Spielberg's “A.I.” and has worked consistently as a voice actor since then. He's also appeared in the television series “The Kominsky Method” and “What We Do in the Shadows.”

In 2006, Osment was charged with drunken driving and marijuana possession after crashing his car into a mailbox in the Los Angeles area and breaking a rib.

He pled no contest to driving under the influence of alcohol and one possession of marijuana and was sentenced to 3 years probation and rehab.
