“Mighty Ducks” actor Shaun Weiss has been netted by law enforcement again.

Weiss, who played Goldberg in 1992’s “The Mighty Ducks” and its subsequent sequels, was arrested early Saturday morning for “being under the influence of drugs,” law enforcement in Oroville, California, said Monday.

According to a Facebook post by the Oroville Public Safety Department, “On August 4th, at 12:47 a.m., officers contacted Shaun Weiss near a business located on the 1700 block of Oro Dam Blvd. Weiss was arrested for being under the influence of drugs.”

Weiss, whose other acting credits include “Pee-wee’s Playhouse,” “Freaks and Geeks” and “The King of Queens,” was arrested for intoxication only and no further criminal proceedings are desired at this time,” according to the Facebook post.

This isn’t Weiss’ first brush with the law. Last August, Weiss was sentenced to 90 days in county jail after being arrested on a methamphetamine charge, a spokesman for the Burbank Police Department told TheWrap at the time.

Weiss’ Aug. 2, 2017, arrest on the methamphetamine charge came just days after he was released from jail on a petty theft charge. Though Weiss was sentenced to 150 days in Los Angeles County Jail, he was released after 12 days due to overcrowding at the jail.

TheWrap has reached out to a representative for Weiss for comment on his most recent arrest.
