Chace Crawford has reached a deal with prosecutors in Texas stemming from his arrest for marijuana possession almost a year ago.
The Gossip Girl actor was arrested in Plano last June after drugs were found in a car that he was occupying. Police caught Crawford rolling a joint in his car with a small bag of marijuana visible on the dash.
Under the terms of the plea deal, the 25-year-old thespian will walk free if he manages to stay out of trouble for the next year. Chace will have his criminal record expunged if he manages to stay out of the way of the police for the next year. He’ll also have to serve 24-hours of community service, which he is expected to carry out over the summer. Crawford is supposed to report to a probation officer every month for the next 12 months. Violation of any of the rules will result in additional legal action against the star.
In other good news for Chace, Gossip Girl was among the series pick up for another season on The CW by network executives last week.
