Ashley Walters fined for marijuana possession

British rapper-actor Ashley Walters was fined 1,475 pounds for possessing marijuana.

The 32-year-old was charged with possessing the drug in June after he tried to board a commercial flight with the substance at Anglesey airport in Wales.

In a hearing conducted Thursday, prosecutor Diane Williams told Holyhead Magistrates' court that a quantity of herbal cannabis was found in a small glass jar in hand luggage and a wrap of the drug was discovered in Walters' wallet.

The amount was deemed "consistent with personal use".

Walters was fined 1,250 pounds for the charge and he has been ordered to pay a victim surcharge of 125 pounds and costs of 100 pounds.
