Case against 'Lost' actor dropped

Associated Press

Charges against Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje were dropped yesterday in District Court after defense attorneys proved the actor in the ABC television series "Lost" has a driver's license.

Akinnuoye-Agbaje was charged with driving without a license and disobeying a police officer after he was taken into custody Sept. 2 in Waikiki.

Following his arrest, Akinnuoye-Agbaje, who plays Mr. Eko on "Lost," spent about six hours in jail before being released on $500 bail.

Two other "Lost" cast members, Michelle Rodriguez and Cynthia Watros, were arrested for drunken driving in November 2004. Both pleaded guilty last year.
