Star Tom Wopat has been arrested and charged with indecent assault after he allegedly stuck his hands down a woman's pants.
The 65-year-old actor, who played Luke Duke in the television series, has also been accused of cocaine possession, reported the Daily Mail.
He was cuffed on Wednesday in Waltham, Massachusetts, where he is starring in a production of the musical 42nd Street.
Waltham Police told DailyMail.com when they searched Wopat's Ford Bronco they found two baggies with white powder they believe is cocaine.
The woman who accused him of the indecent assault is connected to the musical's production, according to TMZ.
Police were actively looking for Wopat Wednesday night and pulled him over in his Bronco.
Police arrested him at 10:53pm.
The cocaine charge is a misdemeanor and the indecent assault is a felony.
The Middlesex district attorney's office says Wopat is scheduled to be arraigned Thursday in Waltham District Court.
He is expected to perform Thursday night in the 42nd Street production. It is the show's opening night.
