Zachery Ty Bryan, best known for his role in Home Improvement, has found himself in trouble once again. Just four months after his last arrest, the former child star was taken into custody on February 17 for “driving under the influence with three or more priors.” In addition, he was also booked for contempt of court.
The arrest occurred after law enforcement spotted a vehicle involved in a traffic collision. Upon pulling Bryan over, officers noticed signs of him being under the influence. This marks the fifth time he has been arrested since 2020.
A Closer Look at Bryan’s Troubling History
Zachery Ty Bryan’s recent arrest is just the latest in a series of legal troubles. In 2020, he faced charges for DUI, and between 2004 and 2020, he was arrested for DUI multiple times. Despite these incidents, Bryan managed to avoid any serious consequences.
However, things took a darker turn in 2020 when he was charged with felony strangulation, fourth-degree assault, coercion, menacing, harassment, and interference. These charges stemmed from an alleged argument with his then-girlfriend, Johnnie Faye Cartwright. Bryan later pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor offenses, while four charges were dropped. The couple reconciled and even got engaged, welcoming three children together.
Unfortunately, Bryan’s troubles resurfaced in July 2023 when he was arrested once again. This time, he faced charges of assault, robbery, and harassment following an argument with an unidentified woman. Despite spending six days in jail, he was eventually released.

Bryan’s repeated encounters with the law highlight the importance of addressing mental health and seeking help when faced with personal challenges. Substance abuse and violent behavior not only have legal consequences but also strain relationships and impact loved ones.
