Furlong, star of films such as “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” and “American History X,” has been arrested twice in the past five months for allegedly attacking Keena.

During a hearing last month, a judge accused Furlong of not taking the restraining order seriously, adding that he needed to seek help for his drug problems.

This is the latest incident in a long line of lawbreaking, probation violations, domestic violence charges and stays in rehab.

Last year, he was banned from seeing his six-year-old son, Ethan, after the child tested positive for cocaine after spending time with him.

He was also fired from two films last year due to arrests for domestic violence.
