Olympian Bode Miller arrested on drug possession charges

Olympic gold medalist Bode Miller was arrested earlier this month on drug-related charges, according to court documents.

The American alpine ski racer was arrested in Idaho on two misdemeanor charges, including possession of a controlled substance and another for possession of drug paraphernalia, the documents noted.

Miller was released on a $5,000 cash bond, the records said. He pleaded not guilty to both charges after his arrest, according to the documents.

ABC News has reached out to representatives of Miller for comment.

Miller is considered as one of the greatest alpine skiers in U.S. history. He is a six-time Olympic medalist and two-time overall World Cup champion.
