Actor Charlie Heaton was denied entry to the U.S. last week after trace amounts of cocaine were found in his luggage at Los Angeles International Airport, The Associated Press reported Saturday.

Heaton, who stars in the Netflix series “Stranger Things,” was returned to London after a Customs and Border Protection department canine sniffed his luggage and officers found a small amount of cocaine.

Heaton, who is British, was not arrested, and charges were not filed against him, according to the AP.
