Shaun Weiss, who played goaltender Greg Goldberg in The Mighty Ducks and its sequels, is facing more legal troubles. He's now being held in a California jail on charges of residential burglary and being under the influence of a controlled substance. Bail has been set at $52,500.
According to the Marysville Police Department, Weiss, now 41, was found by police inside a car which was inside of a garage of a home in the city.
“Weiss forced entry to gain access into the vehicle by shattering a window,” the press release read. “Officers noticed shattered glass on the ground and observed that the passenger window to the vehicle was broken. Officers ordered the male out of the vehicle and took him into custody.”
Police allege Weiss “displayed symptoms of being under the influence of methamphetamine and said he did not reside at this residence. Weiss also said the vehicle he was filtering through was not his."
This isn't the actor's first arrest. In July 2017, Weiss was sentenced to 150 days in the Los Angeles County Jail for petty theft. He served just 12 days in jail due to overcrowding. Five days after his release, Weiss was arrested for possession of a controlled substance, methamphetamine, in Burbank, California and was sentenced to 90 days in jail. He was arrested again on the weekend of August 3, 2018 for public intoxication in Oroville, California. Following that arrest, he declared he was entering rehab.
The Mighty Ducks series is being resurrected on Disney's streaming service, Disney+. As we reported Tuesday, Emilio Estevez is set to reprise is role as Coach Gordan Bombay. So far, no other former Mighty Ducks; actors have been attached to the series. Unfortunately for Weiss, it's doubtful he will get that chance regardless, unless he can make some major changes in his life.
Besides The Mighty Ducks movies, Weiss has a long list of acting appearances on his resume, including recurring roles in The Tony Danza Show, Boy Meets World, Freaks and Geeks, City Guys and King of Queens.
