It looks as though a second "American Idol" finalist has had a past brush with the law.

According to the investigative Web site thesmokinggun.com, Bo Bice was once arrested for felony cocaine possession.

The revelation of the arrest comes nearly a month after The Smoking Gun reported that finalist Scott Savol was once arrested for felony domestic violence after he allegedly roughed up his infant son's mother during a Valentine's Day incident in 2001. After Savol entered a plea bargain in the case, the charge was reduced to a misdemeanor.

Detailed in court documents on the Web site, Bice, whose real name is Harold, was arrested in June 2001 by Huntsville, Ala. The charges were dismissed in April of last year after he completed what was described as a diversion program for first-time offenders, the Web site reported.

Both Bice, 29, and Savol, 28, are among the five finalists on the show. Constantine Maroulis was voted off the show Wednesday night.

On the official "American Idol" Web site, Bice reports that his "most embarrassing moment" was when he once "fell off stage during a show."
