Jake Lloyd, Star Wars' Anakin Skywalker Arrested [PHOTOS]

Jake Lloyd has been arrested on a number of charges, including driving at high speed, failing to stop for cops, and resisting arrest.

The incident occurred in Charleston, South Carolina, where Jake currently lives. Police reportedly tried to get the Star Wars actor to pull over, but a chase ensued. Several miles down the road, Jake lost control of his vehicle and drove off the road into some trees, according to TMZ.

Deputies claim that Lloyd was driving recklessly, passing cars on the double yellow line at high speeds before coming to a crashing halt.

He is detained under the name Jake Broadbent, where he has been charged for driving recklessly, failing to stop, resisting arrest and driving without a license.

"On Wednesday afternoon, around 1:30 p.m., we received a call from the Charleston County office, we were told a car had crossed over county lines into our county, Colleton County," a police spokesperson told E! News.

"The car was speeding and passed over double yellow lines. We were able to find the car that matched the description and the chase ensued."

Jake is best remembered for his portrayal as the young Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace in 1999. He also appeared in “Jingle All the Way,” starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

His last acting credit was opposite Jim Caviezel and Mary McCormack in the 2005 drama 'Madison.'

Back in March 2012, Jake described starring in the popular sci-fi movie as a “living hell,” and it was the main reason he wanted to quit acting.

“Other children were really mean to me,” he recalled. "They would make the sound of the light saber every time they saw me. It was totally mad. My entire school life was really a living hell – and I had to do up to 60 interviews a day."
