Law enforcement told TMZ that Krause was trying to board an AirTran flight at LAX when the plane's captain felt he was too drunk to fly. The pilot then ordered airline staff to turn him away.

When the actor refused to leave and began arguing with employees, cops were called to the terminal and he was eventually arrested for being drunk in public.

He spent the night sobering up in jail, and was released Monday morning.

Krause is best known for starring as Piper's love interest Leo in "Charmed." His first major role was opposite MIlla Jovovich in the 1991 film "Return to the Blue Lagoon," the sequel to 1980 hit "The Blue Lagoon."
