Jamie Waylett, who plays Vincent Crabbe in the Harry Potter films, pleaded guilty to growing ten cannabis plants in his mother’s London home, reports the BBC. The 20-year-old actor was ordered to do 120 hours of community service.
He was arrested after police found pictures of the plants on his camera, which they seized after he took a picture of the officers – which is prohibited under the Terrorism Act – as his friend, John Innis, 20, drove past them.
“I extend my sincere apologies to all producers, cast and crew and all at Warners and most especially to all Harry Potter fans,” said Waylett.
He received a police reprimand and two warnings between 2001 and 2005. No further details were given about these incidents.

Harry Potter star Emma Watson will be attending New York’s Brown University in the fall, reports Perez Hilton. The British star, 19, who plays Harry’s friend Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films, will be living in a dorm room and says she’s looking for some “normality” in her life.
“As long as there are no Harry Potter posters on the wall, I will be fine and happy,” she said, adding she hopes her roommate isn’t a fanatic of the series.
“I really hope they are a really massive Harry Potter fan,” teased Watson’s co-star, Daniel Radcliffe, who plays Harry. “I hope you walk in and the first thing you see is your face on a duvet.”
