Another actor on the ABC hit television series "Lost" has been arrested for a traffic offense — this time Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, who was issued citations early Saturday morning that accuse him of driving without a license and failure to obey a police officer.

The 39-year-old actor, who plays Mr. Eko on "Lost," was arrested about 2:15 a.m. near the corner of Kanekapolei Street and Kuhio Avenue.

Police records show he posted $500 bail on each of the offenses and was released at 8:45 a.m. He did not list a local address.

In November 2004, "Lost" cast members Michelle Rodriguez and Cynthia Watros were charged with drunken driving. Rodriguez opted for a few days of jail time instead of 240 hours of community service.

Watros, who had no prior criminal record, pleaded guilty in January and was sentenced to 14 hours of substance abuse counseling and fined about $500.
