HOLLYWOOD - A warrant has been issued for Tom Sizemore's arrest, to determine whether crystal methamphetamine charges leveled against the actor last month violated the terms of a 2004 drug conviction.
The Saving Private Ryan star is required to turn himself over to authorities, at which time a judge will decide if he should be sent to jail, reports Web site TMZ.com.
Sizemore was taken into custody when cops searched a car he was sitting in outside a hotel in Bakersfield, California, on May 8, allegedly finding two bags of the drug and pipes.
On May 22 in a Bakersfield court, Sizemore pleaded not guilty to one count each of transportation and possession of methamphetamines, and three counts of possession of prescription drugs without the proper prescription.
The 45-year-old is due in court for a preliminary hearing on June 18.
The Los Angeles District Attorney is seeking to revoke the actor's probation, ordered after he pleaded guilty to drug possession last year, and is recommending Sizemore spend 16 months in prison.
A hearing set for June 5 will determine if Sizemore broke the terms of his probation.
