<i> From Times wire services</i>

Corey Feldman, whose voice is heard in the hit film “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” warned his fans to steer clear of drugs after he appeared in court to face cocaine and heroin charges.

The 18-year-old actor was arrested March 9 after authorities said they found 25 balloons of drugs in his car during a traffic stop. He could receive up to eight years in prison. His arraignment, set for Wednesday, was moved to April 25.

Outside court, Feldman, who is free on $5,000 bail, read a statement in which he warned against drugs and said, “You can see how serious it is, so please keep the faith in God, keep the faith in me, and please say a prayer for me.”
