BAKERSFIELD, Calif. -- Actor Tom Sizemore was arrested outside a local hotel on drug charges Tuesday morning.

Officers were called to the Four Points Sheraton Hotel on California Avenue at about 7:40 a.m. when Sizemore, 45, and another man identified as Jason Salcido, 33, became involved in an argument in the lobby of the hotel after they were not allowed to check in, Detective Greg Terry said.

Police said Sizemore, who was waiting in a car in the parking lot of the hotel, was arrested after officers found two bags of methamphetime and a smoking pipe in the vehicle.

Salcido was arrested on suspicion of violating parole.

Bakersfield police arrested Sizemore for being under the influence of a controlled substance, along with other drug charges.
