WASHINGTON (AP) — Actress Rose McGowan, a leading voice against sexual harassment in Hollywood, was arrested on a warrant for a drug charge in Loudoun County.
Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority spokesman Andrew Trull says in an email Tuesday night that McGowan has surrendered to Airports Authority Police. She was charged with possession of a controlled substance.
The felony charge stems from a police investigation of personal belongings left behind on a Jan. 20 United Airlines flight that arrived at Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia. Police said that the items tested positive for narcotics. Airports Authority Police Department got the warrant on Feb. 1.
McGowan was released on $5,000 unsecured bond.
McGowan is among several actresses who have said movie mogul Harvey Weinstein sexually assaulted them.
