Following Pawn Stars’ Chumlee getting arrested this week on drug possession and a weapons charge, Rick Harrison has responded in a statement.
As we previously reported, Chumlee, real name Austin Lee Russell, was arrested on 19 drug charges and one weapon charge after cops raided his Las Vegas home on Wednesday, March 9 due to a warrant stemming from a sexual assault case.
His co-star, Harrison, has responded in an email to FOX411 on Thursday, March 10, writing, “We don't have details yet but we are here to help Chumlee any way we can.”
Chumlee was held at Clark County Detention Center and his bail was reportedly set at $62,000. The sexual assault case he was originally being investigated for is still ongoing, Officer Larry Hadfield said.
