Star Wars actor Jake Lloyd has reportedly been transferred to a psychiatric ward after spending nearly 10 months in jail.
The actor who starred as a young Anakin Skywalker in The Phantom Menace was arrested last year after he led police on a high-speed chase across two counties in South Carolina.
According to TMZ, the child-star was transferred to the psychiatric centre after authorities concluded he needed help with his schizophrenia.

Lloyd's mother Lisa told the gossip website she can already see an improvement in Jake's personality since the transfer.
