Another child star bites the dust.
Jamie Waylett, the 22-year-old actor who appeared in six Harry Potter films, is in the hot seat and facing a slew of charges.
Ranging from possession of a petrol bomb to violent disorder, the accusations all stem from Jamie’s alleged involvement in this summer’s London riots.
As Reported By The Guardian:
Police also discovered 15 cannabis plants in his bedroom–a big no-no considering the thesp was busted for growing marijuana in 2009.
Authorities allege the 22-year-old Waylett armed himself on Aug. 8 with a Molotov cocktail with intent to destroy or damage property during the melee that made worldwide headlines and led to the arrest of more than 3,000 people.
Waylett was arrested on 20 September following rioting across the capital in August.
A Metropolitan police spokesman said: “He was charged with violent disorder, having an article with intent to destroy or damage property, receiving stolen goods and also cultivating cannabis plants.”
It’s a sad day for Harry Potter fans, hopefully Waylett has learned his lesson and will recover from this incident.
