Having been hit with two misdemeanour charges in November, the actress portraying Samara Morgan in 'The Ring' has also had a judge issuing a warrant for her arrest.

AceShowbiz - "The Ring" actress Daveigh Chase has been formally charged with drug possession.

The 28-year-old was arrested in Hollywood in August, and according to The Blast, she was officially hit with two misdemeanour charges last month.

She is facing one year in jail and a fine of up to $1,000 (£790) if convicted of the charges of possession of a controlled substance without a valid prescription and possession of drug paraphernalia. The presiding judge also issued a warrant for her arrest as she was initially released on a $1,000 bond.

This is not the first time the star has run into trouble with the law as she was briefly locked up last year over an alleged joyriding incident, and was subsequently booked on a felony charge of driving in a car without the owner's consent.

The same year she was arrested and questioned by detectives after a man was left outside a Los Angeles hospital, where he later died. She had been with the individual hours before his death and was questioned about her role in the incident - but was never charged with any crime.

Chase rose to fame as a child star after bagging roles in "Donnie Darko", Disney's "Lilo & Stitch" and the Hollywood remake of "The Ring". However, she has found major parts harder to come by in recent years and has mainly appeared in low-budget thrillers.
