Nick StahlNick Stahl has been arrested for alleged possession of crystal meth.

The troubled Terminator 3: Rise of the Machine actor was arrested along with three other people by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) in a Hollywood motel at 5am on Friday morning, according to TMZ. The police went to the motel to conduct a parole compliance check one of the other people and Nick was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

This is the latest blow for the star who was arrested for allegedly committing a "lewd act" at a porn shop in Los Angeles in December, an incident he claimed was a "misunderstanding." Nick was arrested by undercover vice officers for the LAPD at the store after they allegedly discovered him "touching himself" in a private booth.

He was also reported missing in May 2012 and again the following month. After his fist disappearance he re-emerged and was admitted to a rehabilitation clinic. However, he walked out of the facility and went to stay with a pal but was again reported missing when he failed to return to the friend's home.

‘No Evidence’ of Police Sexual Assault on Amanda Bynes

The Easy A actress had accused one of the arresting officers of entering her New York City apartment illegally, slapping her vagina and lying about her throwing a bong out of the window in front of him. After Amanda made her complaint, Internal Affairs investigated the serious allegations made by the 27-year-old star but could find nothing to corroborate her claims and have concluded all officers acted appropriately and professionally.

"Internal Affairs investigators have found no evidence to corroborate Ms. Bynes' allegations. To the contrary, a credible civilian witness who was with the officers throughout told investigators that none touched Ms. Bynes inappropriately or otherwise engaged in misconduct at any time," said astatement released by the New York Police Department (NYPD).

It was a really bad decision on both their parts and trust me, they're evaluating that and they will make damn sure it doesn't happen again," a source said.

Reese - who has seven-month-old son Tennessee with Jim - is also worried about how her kids Ava, 13 and Deacon, nine, from her previous marriage to Ryan Phillippe, will cope with the scandal. "She is happy to be home with her kids again. She didn't feel good about being away from them after the news of her arrest broke. Her kids are everything to her," the insider added.
