VAN NUYS -- Ronald Reagan's 31-year-old grandson was arrested Thursday in Van Nuys, police said.
Cameron Reagan, the son of political radio host Michael Reagan, was taken into custody for resisting arrest after officers were dispatched to the 4700 block of Allot Avenue about 12:20 a.m., said Los Angeles police Officer April Harding of the Media Relations Section.
It was not immediately known why officers went to the home.
Officers saw Reagan leaving the rear door of the residence and attempted to stop and talk to him, Harding said. Reagan was "very uncooperative and belligerent, and he was arrested for resisting arrest."
Reagan was booked at the Van Nuys Jail for a misdemeanor and is being held in lieu of $10,000 bail, according to the sheriff's department.
This is not Cameron's first run-in with the law. In 2001, he was ordered by a judge to attend drug rehab and anger management after he was found with marijuana.
In 1999, he was sentenced to six months in jail on charges of receiving stolen property for his role in two car burglaries.
Earlier, he was convicted of vandalism.
TEchnically, he’s not his biological grand son! :P
he was arrested for resisting arrest.
ooookaaaay.
Maybe they were looking to score also.
He was arrested for resisting arrest???
And what was he being arrested for when he resisted arrest, or was “resisting arrest” the only charge?
Say what? You may resist arrest, but that's not what you're arrested for. You're arrested for the original perceived infraction of the law.
“he was arrested for resisting arrest.”
COP: You’re under arrest.
Target: On what charge?
COP: Resisting arrest.
Judge: Dismissed!
Unlikely that you have both a problem with marijuana addiction and anger management.
He probably likes marijuana and was justifiably angry that they took his pot away. Or he smokes pot to self medicate for his anger problem.

Such a shame. If a Reagan was going to be hauled off to the hoosegow I was really hoping it would be Ronnie, Jr.
The story on local radio here this morning was that someone in the house had hit a panic button on the security system and the police were responding to that. As for the marijuana charge, it’s ridiculously easy to get a medical marijuana card in L.A. that will immunize you from arrest.
Neat charge!
I wonder if they can sue him for being in a lawsuit, too?
Perhaps give him the death penalty for a suicide attempt?
I suspect it's just bad reporting. My guess is he'll be jacked-up with disorderly/disturbing and resisting. I don't believe he's on probation, so there's more than a decent chance that both will be dropped for court costs, or he'll get a very limited probationary time - 6 months(ish).
I’ve heard Michael address his love of President Reagan, his father. I believe he was more a child of Reagan than the other two pinheads.
This was Reagan’s grandson and I wouldn’t wouldn’t want to mention the biological connection out of respect for Michael. He’s a good guy.
Not trying to give you a hard time..., just sayin’.
and take Patti with them.
Contempt of Cop ? Oh boy that's so last century . No anonymous call about a person acting in a disorderly manner or suspected walking with intent to loiter ? Very unimaginative police work .
Maureen was Reagan’s biological child with Jane Wyman.
No kidding . If you can't find some kind of dope on that poostie your sniffer dog has turned to the dark side .
