Redmond O'Neal was arrested in Santa Monica Tuesday in connection with narcotics, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

Police saw O'Neal run a red light, and pulled him over. Upon inspection of his automobile, officers found heroin in the vehicle.

He was being held with no bail, police said.

Redmond has not yet been booked but is in the process of being booked and is currently in police custody.

The red-headed 26-year-old is less than a year removed from graduating from a court-ordered treatment program that he was forced to attend for a pair of drug-related offenses.

The long-troubled son of Ryan O'Neal and the late Farrah Fawcett said he was clean last year after a litany of drug-related arrests marred his mother's final months, as he was shackled for his final visit with Fawcett.

O'Neal remains on probation for a 2009 incident in which he brought narcotics onto the grounds of a jail facility.

This kid is a tragedy. He is not good looking and is so shy it's painful to watch. I still can't figure out why with the best looking parents in Hollyweird he would end up medicating himself. Tortured soul.......Wasted opportunities..

Ryan makes the case for forced sterilization. He is a royal f-up who only cares about himself and who had no business breeding!!!

He gambled on having both his freedom and his drugs, and he lost. Now he has neither. Hope it was worth it.
