Indio, who is a guitar player and singer, was released on $10,250 bail at 12:30 a.m. Monday morning.

Robert issued a statement about his son's arrest on Monday, saying, 'Unfortunately there's a genetic component to addiction and Indio has likely inherited it. Also, there is a lot of family support and understanding, and we're all determined to rally behind him and help him become the man he's capable of being. We're grateful to the Sheriff's department for their intervention, and believe Indio can be another recovery success story instead of a cautionary tale.'

The Iron Man star, 49, knows all too well about drug addiction, which he struggled with for much of his life. His own father, also an addict, started giving him drugs at just 8 and things escalated from there. It eventually led.
