An arrest warrant has been issued against Hollywood actress Rose McGowan in relation to a drug charge. According to The Hollywood Reporter, McGowan has been accused of possession of a controlled substance. The felony charges are based on the police’s investigation of personal belongings left behind on a United flight arriving at Washington Dulles International Airport on January 20 this year.
Speaking to Deadline, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police Department said that her personal belongings left behind from the flight tested positive for narcotics and that they have attempted to contact her in order for her to appear at a Loudoun County Virginia court.
McGowan tweeted about the incident:
Are they trying to silence me? There is a warrant out for my arrest in Virginia. What a load of HORSESHIT.

McGowan is one of the many women rallying against Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, who has been accused of sexual harassment by many women (including top actresses) in the industry. McGowan claims that Weinstein even raped her back in 1997 and was offered $1 million to not speak about him.
