Zachery Ty Bryan has been arrested on suspicion of DUI.
The Home Improvement alum, 43, was booked for DUI: second felony offense and driving without a valid license by the Custer County Sheriff’s Department in Oklahoma on Friday, October 25, at 8:34 a.m., according to arrest records viewed by Us Weekly.
Bryan’s arrest comes amid his many legal woes over the years.
In May 2020, he entered a guilty plea after being booked for a DUI. He was sentenced to five years of probation and 18 months of a multiple-offender alcohol program due to a past record of DUI arrests.

In October that year, he was arrested for allegedly strangling partner Johnnie Faye Cartwright. Us confirmed that Bryan agreed to a plea deal in the domestic violence case, agreeing to plead guilty to menacing and fourth-degree assault.
In July 2023, Bryan pleaded guilty to felony assault in the fourth degree constituting domestic violence in court, Us confirmed. After his sentencing, Cartwright broke her silence on Bryan’s legal troubles in a statement to Us.

“Trauma can bring struggles in many shapes and forms. It’s a horrible situation that’s going to be spun in so many ways. I’ve learned firsthand the truth will never align with what’s been put out there,” she said in August that year. “I ask everyone to please be respectful of our privacy for the sake of the children and our families so the healing process can begin.” (The couple share three kids: daughter Kennedy and twins Parker and Sequoia.)
In February, Bryan was arrested for a suspected DUI with three or more priors. According to court documents obtained by Us, Bryan was booked by the La Quinta Police Department for contempt of court as well after he was pulled over at a traffic stop.
Patricia Richardson Says Jonathan Taylor Thomas Doesn’t Want to Act Again
The actor – who got his big break as Brad Taylor on Home Improvement opposite Tim Allen, Patricia Richardson, Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Taran Noah Smith – previously opened up about the “difficulty” of navigating his career and finding stability after the series wrapped.
“If you star in a TV show today, you can be in any film that you want, but back then, it was the polar opposite,” Bryan told The Hollywood Reporter in June 2023. “You were stigmatized as a TV star, and no matter how good your audition, you were never going to be taken seriously. But I kept at it.”
He added, “On the same token, you might get turned down on a bunch of projects, but you could go out at night and hang out with your buddies at Mel’s Diner and everybody knows you.”
