Reinhold, 59, was
taken into custody at about 1:15 p.m. local time on Thursday and
charged with disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor, the Dallas
Police Department said in a statement.
Reinhold, who is known for roles in movies such as "Beverly
Hills Cop," "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" and "Gremlins," was
arrested for causing a disturbance by refusing to be screened at
a Transportation Security Administration checkpoint, police
said.
Reinhold went through a TSA scanner and was stopped when his bag
set off an alarm, his lawyer, Steve Stodghill, told the Dallas
Morning News.
Agents asked to pat Reinhold down, but he did not understand why
it was needed after he went through the scanner without an
alarm, Stodghill said.
Police officials were not immediately available for comment.
