A TEENAGE star of the Harry Potter films has been arrested after cops found a £2,000 cannabis farm in his bedroom.
Drug squad officers swooped on 19-year-old Jamie Waylett — famed as bullying Hogwarts School pupil Vincent Crabbe in the wizard movies — after a tip-off.
Police first stopped him in an Audi car and discovered eight bags of pot inside the vehicle.
Waylett and a pal in the motor, also 19, were held at the scene on suspicion of possession.
Cops then raided the home the actor shares with his mum Theresa, two brothers and a sister — and seized ten mature cannabis plants valued at about £2,000.
The plants were growing under powerful hydroponic lights beside the actor’s DJ decks and a PlayStation.
Waylett was further arrested on suspicion of production of a Class B drug.
Significant
The maximum jail term for cannabis production is 14 years. For possession, it is a five-year stretch.
Podgy Waylett, a pal of fellow Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint, has appeared in all six blockbuster films.

He will be seen by millions of young fans in the latest offering — Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince — which is out in July.
Officers stopped the Audi in London’s Westminster, believing the occupants were behaving suspiciously.
The cannabis farm was later found at shocked Theresa’s home in Camden.
A police source said: “It was a pretty significant find. We are concerned the drugs in the car were all bagged up and ready to go.
“Work now needs to be done to establish how far down the line we are towards dealing.
