- Share via
Prosecutors filed two misdemeanor charges Wednesday against actor Nick Nolte stemming from his arrest last month in Malibu.
Nolte, 61, faces one count of driving under the influence and one count of being under the influence of a controlled substance, the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office said.
Prosecutors believe that Nolte had taken gamma-hydroxybutyrate, also known as GHB, before he was stopped along Pacific Coast Highway while driving erratically Sept. 11.
Nolte, who is free on $2,500 bail, is set to be arraigned Monday at the Malibu courthouse.
