Former child star Zachery Ty Bryan, best known for his role as the eldest son on the sitcom 'Home Improvement,' has been arrested again after multiple troubles with the law.
- Jan 4, 2025
AceShowbiz - Zachery Ty Bryan, 43, was arrested on January 1, 2024, in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and charged with second-degree domestic violence. He remains in custody with a $10,000 bond. This marks Bryan's third arrest on domestic violence charges.
In 2020, Bryan was arrested for allegedly strangling his girlfriend in Oregon. He pleaded guilty to felony assault in the fourth degree and was sentenced to 36 months of probation. Despite their turbulent past, the couple got married in 2021.
In 2023, Bryan was arrested again for domestic assault. He pleaded guilty to "felony assault in the fourth degree constituting domestic violence" and was sentenced to seven days in jail.
Bryan has also faced several DUIs arrests in recent years. In 2024, he was arrested twice for driving under the influence in California and Oklahoma. It's unclear if any of these arrests resulted in convictions.
Following Bryan's previous arrests, his former costar and TV dad, Tim Allen, expressed concern, saying, "He's a great kid who has grown into a complex man ... I don't know what happens when people get corrupted."
Bryan starred as Brad Taylor, the oldest child on "Home Improvement" from 1991 to 1999. He retired from acting in 2009 but has had numerous run-ins with the law since then.
