A judge has issued an arrest warrant for actor Gary Dourdan after he failed to attend a progress hearing.

The former Csi: Crime Scene Investigation star struck a plea deal with prosecutors in 2012 following claims he had broken an ex-girlfriend's nose during a fight the previous year (11).

He was due to attend court earlier this week (begs09Jun14) to update a judge on his progress, but he was a no-show, according to Tmz.com.

The judge reportedly issued a bench warrant for Dourdan's arrest and revoked his probation. He had been handed five years' probation as part of his deal, as well as being ordered to complete domestic violence and drug counselling.
