Actor Haley Joel Osment, best known for his role as the creepy kid in 1999’s “The Sixth Sense,” has been charged with possession of marijuana and driving under the influence of alcohol.

Reuters reports that the charges were laid by prosectors on Thursday. They stem from a car accident in Los Angeles on July 20 that left the 18-year-old hospitalized with a broken rib and an injured shoulder.

Osment’s blood alcohol level exceeded 0.15 per-cent, with 0.8 per-cent being the legal limit while driving, according to Deputy District Attorney Ed Green.

If convicted on the charges, the Oscar-nominated actor faces a sentence of up to six months in prison.
