The officer stopped the 1992 Acura Integra that Brown was driving because the headlights were off. During a search of the car, the officer found nine grams of marijuana on the driver’s side door. Brown, in an interview, denied that the marijuana belonged to him. Also a singer and rapper, he said a friend lent him the car to use during his stay in Houston to make an album. Brown said he thought the car’s headlights were on when the officer pulled him over. 

Brown was taken into custody without incident and charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession. He was released on bond. 

In addition to the Disney Channel television show, Brown has appeared in several movies, including Max Keeble’s Big Move and Major Payne.

Orlando Brown - Missing 'That's So Raven' Actor Surfaces

April 24, 2008

"That's So Raven" actor Orlando Brown is home safe and apologizing after he was reported missing after he failed to return from a trip to a convenience store Tuesday, according to People magazine.

The 20-year-old Brown, who played Eddie Thomas opposite Raven-Symone on the Disney Channel show, was said to have left his manager's house about 10:20 Tuesday morning for a trip to the store, People reported. But when he didn't return and his publicist, Elayne Rivers, couldn't contact him, the actor's family and friends became concerned.

Brown apologized for the panic he caused in a statement, according to People, and said that he "needed to be alone" after being missing for over 24 hours. Brown added that he "felt a little lost and needed to get away" after a problem with musical gig at Club Tattoo in Los Angeles last week. 

Brown's publicist, who confirmed that the actor was missing, denied in a statement that the disappearance was a publicity stunt, People said.
