Haley Joel Osment, the actor who became a household name due to his performance in The Sixth Sense, has reportedly been arrested.

The 37-year-old former child star was arrested on April 8 after police got a call shortly after 2 p.m. claiming he was intoxicated, according to documents obtained by TMZ on Wednesday.

Osment — who recently lost his home in LA’s devastating fires — was reportedly accompanied by ski patrol members when he was arrested at the Mammoth Mountain resort in Mammoth Lakes, California, a popular skiing destination.

After arriving at the police station, the actor was booked for public intoxication and possession of a controlled substance.

However, it’s unclear what substance Osment allegedly had on him, and police sent it to a lab for testing.

He was reportedly released shortly after being booked.

Despite the booking, Osment’s fate now lies with the District Attorney for Mono County, who will decide on whether to charge him.

The actor’s mental state may have played a role in his arrest, as sources familiar with his current situation told TMZ that he has been having a tough time after his home was burned to the ground in the devastating Altadena fire.

His difficult interactions with his insurance company as he tries to get reimbursed for his destroyed home have reportedly been weighing on him.

Sources said he had recently found a suitable replacement home, but he was unable to get his insurance company to pay for it. 

Osment’s image as a squeaky-clean child actor came crashing down back in 2006, when he was arrested after crashing his car into a mailbox’s brick pillar, which flipped his car over.

He broke a rib and injured in his shoulder in the crash, necessitating a brief hospital stay. 

A month later, he was charged with misdemeanor DUIs for driving under the influence of alcohol with an alleged blood-alcohol content higher than 0.15 percent and for possession of marijuana while driving. Osment was also charged with having a 0.05 percent BAC while under 21. 

He ultimately pleaded no contest to one count each of driving under the influence of alcohol and possession of marijuana.

In February, Osment opened up about his housing woes after losing his home to the Eaton Fire.

While speaking on the Mentor Buffet podcast, he noted his difficulties living in California, as he had lived in New York for 15 years before moving closer to Hollywood in 2020 — just days before a statewide stay-at-home order from Governor Gavin Newsom.
