LOS ANGELES - Ryan O'Neal and his son were arrested Wednesday morning after authorities said they found drugs at the actor's Malibu home during a routine probation check.


Investigators suspect both men had methamphetamine, but the substances still need to be tested, Los Angeles County Sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore said.

Los Angeles Sheriff's deputies and probation officers went to O'Neal's home for a routine check of his son Redmond, who is serving three years of probation after pleading guilty in June to drug possession charges.

Whitmore said in addition to drugs that deputies suspect belong to Redmond O'Neal, deputies also found narcotics in Ryan O'Neal's living area. Both men remain in custody on $10,000 bail and could be charged with felony possession of narcotics.

Ryan O'Neal, 67, was nominated for a best actor Oscar for "Love Story." Redmond, 23, is his son from a relationship with actress Farrah Fawcett.

O'Neal had two children with his first wife, Joanna Moore: actor Griffin O'Neal and actress Tatum O'Neal, his co-star in the 1973 movie "Paper Moon," for which she won an Oscar for best supporting actress.

Tatum O'Neal, the youngest actress to win an Oscar and who now has a recurring role on FX's series "Rescue Me," pleaded guilty in July to disorderly conduct in connection with an arrest on suspicion of cocaine possession in New York.

Ryan O'Neal was arrested last February on suspicion of assaulting his son, Griffin, but charges were never filed.

A call to Ryan O'Neal's agent, David Shapira, was not immediately returned Wednesday morning.

Right, because only young people do drugs.

No, of course not....

But come on, most people grow up at some point in their lives.....this guy is almost at the end of his and still hasnt...

Really? It's been documented for years that this family has serious drug issues. Add Tatum to the list as well. She wrote a book a few years ago detailing all of the issues. Pretty messed up family IMO.

I had no idea your name was Neal.

I read where Tatum was one of the hardest hitting db's in football.

One would think that the O'Neals could afford some decent narcotics. Meth?

I wonder if Ryan and his son get geeked out and shish kabob Farrah.
