US acting star Chace Crawford faces a marijuana possession charge after being arrested, police said today.
Texas authorities said the 'Gossip Girl' heart-throb was stopped in the Dallas suburb of Plano.
Police spokesman Rick McDonald said Crawford was arrested in a parked vehicle early on Friday morning.
He was booked and later released on a misdemeanour charge of possessing less than two ounces of marijuana.
A source told HollywoodLife: "Chace was rolling a joint. He had a little under two ounces of marijuana in a plastic baggy sitting in clear view on the dashboard.
"He was very polite and low key in a pair of jeans and flip flops and never identified himself."
The 24-year-old was heading back from Mexico where he had been spending time with his sister.
The maximum charge for possession in Texas is six months in jail and a fine of up to $2,000.
The 24-year-old actor plays hunky Nate Archibald on the hit teen drama.
He’s slated to star in an upcoming remake of the 1984 film 'Footloose'.
People magazine listed Crawford as its hottest bachelor of last summer.
He also was named last year’s Teen Choice Awards winner for actor in a TV drama.
