Actor David Henrie — who formerly starred with Selena Gomez on the Disney Channel teen sitcom “Wizards of Waverly Place” — is facing three misdemeanor counts stemming from his arrest earlier this month for allegedly carrying a loaded gun at Los Angeles International Airport, a spokesman for the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office said Wednesday.
Henrie is charged with one count each of carrying a loaded firearm, carrying a concealed firearm and possessing a weapon in a sterile area of the airport, according to Frank Mateljan of the City Attorney’s Office.
Henrie — who is set to be arraigned Oct. 1 — could face up to a year behind bars if convicted as charged, according to Mateljan.
Henrie, 29, was arrested about 9 a.m. Sept. 10 during TSA screening in Terminal 2, said Airport Police Officer Rob Pedregon.
According to TMZ.com, Henrie was in possession of an M&P Shield 9mm pistol.
Henrie starred as Gomez’s brother on “Wizards of Waverly Place’ from 2007-2012, and also has made appearances on “How I Met Your Mother’ and “Arrested Development.”
