Tanner Jailed For Three Months

One Tree Hill star Antwon Tanner has been sentenced to three months behind bars for selling social security numbers.

The actor, who played basketball coach Skills on the U.S. teen drama, pleaded guilty in August to dealing out more than a dozen identification codes for $10,000 (£6,250) to an undercover detective during a sting operation.

Despite telling court officials he was only the "middleman" in the deal, a Brooklyn judge ordered the 34 year old to report to jail on 30 April to start his sentence.

He will serve five months home detention upon his release.
