Actor Rip Torn has been arrested for breaking into a bank in Connecticut and carrying a loaded gun while drunk.
State police said the 78-year-old was arrested on Friday night after he was found inside the Litchfield Bancorp bank with a loaded revolver.
The actor, best known as Agent Zed in the Men In Black films, was charged with burglary and possession of a firearm without a permit.
He is being held on $100,000 bail and is due in court on Monday.
The gravelly-voiced actor was born Elmore Rual Torn in 1931.
A cousin of US actress Sissy Spacek, he was nominated for an Oscar in 1984 for his role in Cross Creek, a biopic of The Yearling author Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings.
He also won an Emmy for The Larry Sanders Show in 1992, and most recently appeared in US sitcom 30 Rock as television boss Don Geiss.
Last year, Torn was given probation in a drink-driving case in Connecticut and granted permission to enter an alcohol education programme.
He also has two previous drink driving arrests in New York, one of which became notorious after a video emerged of the actor cursing at police officers and refusing to take a sobriety test.
