FORMER child star Corey Feldman has been hit with a drugs charge just days after he spoke out about sexual abuse in Hollywood.

The 46-year-old, who starred in films including The Goonies and The Lost Boys as a teenager, was due to perform with his band in Louisiana, USA, before being arrested by police.

He was charged with one count of possessing marijuana and one count in regard to a traffic violation, according to local reports in Richland Parish.

The News-Star reported that the actor turned musician was not held in jail overnight but that he will likely have to pay a fine.

He was due to perform at the nearby Live Oaks Bar & Balloroom but in a Facebook post earlier today the venue said that: “Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Corey Feldman show has been cancelled.

“We would like to apologise for the cancellation. He will still be coming to hangout and it’s totally free”.

Local reports suggest six other individuals were also charged at the time of Feldman’s arrest.
