‘Home Improvement’ star out on bond after arrest in S.C.
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WMBF) – A 1990s sitcom star is out on bond after recently landing behind bars in the Grand Strand.
Myrtle Beach police arrested Zachery Ty Bryan, who played the oldest brother Brad Taylor in the hit TV show “Home Improvement,” on New Year’s Day, according to jail records.
Records show Bryan faces a second-degree domestic violence charge.
Public court records show the former TV star was released from jail on Friday after posting a $10,000 bond.
WMBF News has requested the incident report and arrest warrants for Bryan’s case to get more details on what led up to the arrest. We are waiting to get those documents.
This isn’t Bryan’s first run-in with the law.
Bryan was arrested twice in 2024 for DUI. The first one happened in Feb. 2024 in La Quinta, Calif., and the second took place in Oct. 2024 in Custer County, Okla.
Police arrested the the former child star in 2023 on assault, robbery and harassment charges connected to a domestic incident.
Bryan was also arrested in 2020 on domestic violence charges after he strangled a woman who would later become his fiancée. A judge sentenced him to 36 months of “bench probation” and ordered him to take part in a program called Bridges2Safety.
