LA QUINTA, California — Former “Home Improvement” star Zachery Ty Bryan was arrested over the weekend in La Quinta, California for driving under the influence.
Deputies from the La Quinta Sheriff’s Station conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle suspected of being involved in a recent traffic collision. Upon contacting the driver, 42-year-old Zachery Bryan, deputies observed indications of impairment, leading to his arrest for driving under the influence with priors, according to Sergeant Wenndy Brito-Gonzalez.
Additionally, Bryan was charged with a felony for driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, as well as a misdemeanor “contempt of court.” He was booked into the Riverside County jail, and later into the John Benoit Detention Center, where he was released on $50,000 bail.
This is not the first time Bryan has had a run-in with the law. In 2020, he entered a guilty plea stemming from an altercation with his girlfriend in Eugene, Oregon, where he allegedly tried to strangle her at their apartment.
Despite his past legal issues, Bryan’s latest arrest serves as a reminder of the actor’s ongoing struggles. Such incidents not only impact his personal and professional life, but they also raise concerns about the well-being of those involved. It’s important to recognize that celebrities, like anyone else, are vulnerable to a range of issues, and these incidents can serve as a reminder that everyone faces challenges in life, regardless of their public image.
