Posted on: Wednesday, 27 August 2008, 18:00 CDT
Singer and TV actress MacKenzie Phillips was arrested Wednesday in Los Angeles after airport security allegedly found drugs in her possession, police said.
Phillips, 48, has battled an addiction to drugs for years.
Best known for her work on the 1970s and 1980s sit-com "One Day at a Time," she also appeared in the Disney Channel series "So Weird" in the 1990s.
Police said the daughter of The Mamas and the Papas lead singer John Phillips was arrested for drug possession at Los Angeles International Airport Wednesday.
"She was being screened by airport security when a small amount of what appeared to be heroin and cocaine were found on her person," Sgt. Jim Holcomb told People.com. "She was arrested at about 10 a.m. and is still in custody. ... The substances were found in balloons and baggies."
Phillips' publicist wasn't immediately available to comment on the incident, People.com said.
