The 33-year-old actor was taken into custody by police during a traffic stop in Gulfport, Mississippi on Wednesday, according to USA Today.
Police found two pounds of marijuana, 1,300 doses of MDMA (a.k.a. Ecstasy or Molly), a Glock 19 pistol and an AK-47 firearm in his possession.
The actor, who was released the same day, faces four felony charges for the possession of weapons and the possession of controlled substances.
