Actor
Brad Renfro, who was pulled from obscurity at 12 when
Joel Schumacher picked him off the street to appear in 1994's
The
Client, was arrested in California yesterday when he tried to buy heroin from an undercover cop. The sting
operation, which reportedly was not aimed specifically at Renfro, resulted in the arrests of a total of 15 people.
Renfro, who avoided jail time with a plea in a 1998 cocaine and marijuana charge, is 23. More details as we get
them.
