Zachery Ty Bryan, known for his role in the popular sitcom “Home Improvement,” found himself in legal trouble once again. The 43-year-old actor was arrested for driving under the influence in Custer County, Oklahoma. This was not his first DUI offense, as he was previously arrested earlier this year in La Quinta, California.
In February, Bryan was arrested for DUI in La Quinta after a traffic stop conducted by deputies revealed signs of impairment. This led to his arrest for driving under the influence with prior offenses. He was then booked into a Riverside County jail and faced charges of a felony DUI and misdemeanor contempt of court.
Following his most recent arrest in Oklahoma, Bryan’s legal issues seem to be piling up. In July 2023, he was arrested for a physical domestic dispute and charged with two counts of assault in the fourth degree. Bryan pleaded guilty to felony assault in the fourth degree, which constituted domestic violence. As part of a negotiated resolution, he served seven days in jail instead of facing a longer sentence in the Oregon Department of Corrections.
This is not the first time Bryan has faced legal troubles related to violence. In 2020, he entered a guilty plea after an altercation with his girlfriend, Johnnie Faye Cartwright, where he allegedly attempted to strangle her at their apartment in Eugene, Oregon.
Despite his legal issues, Bryan is best known for his role as Brad Taylor, the oldest son of Tim “The Tool Man” Taylor, played by Tim Allen in “Home Improvement.” The sitcom aired from 1991 to 1999 and gained immense popularity. Bryan has continued to act intermittently since then, with roles in films like “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift” in 2006 and most recently in “The Guardians of Justice.”
It is clear that Zachery Ty Bryan’s personal life has been overshadowed by his legal troubles in recent years. His fans and followers are left wondering about the future of his career in the entertainment industry as he navigates these challenges. As more details about his legal proceedings emerge, the public remains curious about how Bryan will address and overcome these obstacles.
