Witnesses say radio host drugged girl, 14

? KCRW-FM radio host Christopher Douridas, an influential Grammy-nominated musical tastemaker who has consulted on such Hollywood films as “American Beauty” and “Shrek 2,” was arrested last week outside a popular Santa Monica bar on suspicion of drugging and trying to kidnap a 14-year-old girl.

Douridas, 43, was arrested shortly after midnight Jan. 6, said Lt. Frank Fabrega, of the Santa Monica Police Department. Witnesses, who reported seeing Douridas put a substance into the victim’s drink and carry her out of a bar, flagged down police, Fabrega said. A man, identified by authorities only as in his 30s, was arrested as a possible accomplice to Douridas.

The girl, who became ill, was taken to a hospital, where she was treated and released, Fabrega said. It was unclear how the girl got into the bar.

Douridas was released by police after posting $1 million bail.

The Los Angeles district attorney’s office, which is still gathering evidence in the case, is awaiting toxicology results before deciding whether to file charges, said Eva Jabber, deputy district attorney with the sex crimes division.
