Video: Steroids Dealer from "The Wrestler" Arrested for Steroids Dealing

Video: Steroids Dealer from The Wrestler Arrested for Steroids DealingSubmit Comment
An actor who played a steroids dealer in the movie "The Wrestler" was arrested on drug charges after leading police on a high-speed chase in Eastchester on Thursday.

Scott Siegel was under surveillance by DEA agents who saw him picking up a package in New Rochelle on Wednesday before leading them on a car chase in his SUV, investigators said.

Agents rammed the New Rochelle actor's SUV several times in an unsuccessful attempt to prevent him from fleeing, according to investigators. Siegel eventually ditched the vehicle in Tuckahoe and led agents on a foot chase.

Siegel struggled with DEA agents before they were able to take him into custody at the intersection of Highland Avenue and Main Street, authorities said. Siegel is charged with attempting to distribute steroids and assaulting a federal agent.

Thursday's arrest was not Siegel's first brush with the law. He was arrested in 1999 for distributing steroids, ecstasy and an animal tranquilizer that can be used for hallucinations.

Siegel's character sells steroids and painkillers to Randy (Mickey Rourke) in "The Wrestler."
