DUBLIN, Ireland–Irish state prosecutors dropped charges against Irish actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers on Wednesday after he expressed remorse – through his lawyer – for being drunk and abusive at Dublin Airport.
Rhys Meyers, 30, was arrested Nov. 18 and faced two charges of public drunkenness and breach of the peace after he was refused permission to board a flight to London.
Rhys Meyers did not appear at his Dublin District Court arraignment Wednesday.
State prosecutors said they had accepted an apology from the actor and dropped the charges. Rhys Meyers, however, was given a legal caution, a probationary action under which he could face harsher penalties if he behaves that way in public in Ireland again.
