And finally, the son of the legendary action star Jackie Chan has been arrested in China
after police discovered illegal drugs at his home.
Paul, it′s shocking news... especially since Jackie Chan has been such as strong proponent
against narcotics in the country.
That′s right.
Authorities say Jaycee Chan was detained on Wednesday, on drug charges...
along with several other suspects including Taiwanese actor Kai Ko.
According to state media, the two high-profile actors were caught during a police raid in
the commercial and cultural center of the Chinese capital.
Both men had reportedly tested positive for marijuana and now face up to three years in
prison.
Police later discovered a stash of marijuana and another type of drug at his Beijing aparment.
In a televised interview, Ko vowed to reform himself after apologizing for what he called
a mistake.
"Actually, I really regret it.
And I really apologize to all those who supported me and even to those I know, and would like
to say to them, I′m really sorry.
I′ve set the worst example and have been the worst influence."
The arrests are the most recent celebrity detentions as part of a anti-drug campaign
by law enforcement agencies.
Jackie Chan has not yet commented on the incident but his publicist says he is traveling to
Beijing to deal with his son′s arrest.
Chery.
All right Paul,... thanks for the update.
We′ll see you back... in just about two hours.
