The former CSI: Crime Scene Investigation actor was arrested this morning in Los Angeles after the discovery of "a few pills" of ecstasy in his possession, reports TMZ.
Dourdan reportedly crashed his vehicle into two parked cars, and police were called to the scene at around 3.30am.
The actor was taken to a nearby police station after discovering the pills, with bail set at $10,000 (£6,100).
Dourdan was released just after midday, after spending several hours in custody.
In 2008, Dourdan was arrested for possession of cocaine, ecstasy and other drugs, but managed to avoid jail time.
He was then ordered to complete 30 hours of a drug diversion programme.
Dourdan's character Warrick Brown was written out in the eighth season finale of CSI in 2008.
