Why Jonathan Taylor Thomas's Recent Detainment is Making Waves

“Home Improvement” alum Jonathan Taylor Thomas was detained in California, Page Six can confirm.

On Monday, the former child star was riding in the passenger seat of a vehicle pulled over in Westlake Village, California, per TMZ.

During the traffic stop, authorities asked him to remain inside the vehicle when he stepped out.

However, the “uncooperative” actor refused to listen to officers who told him to remain inside and was detained for allegedly obstructing or resisting an executive officer. Per the outlet, Thomas, 45, was drunk in public and resisted.

Jail records seen by Page Six confirm that Thomas was detained at the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff’s jail — before being released shortly after.

Page Six reached out to Taylor for comment.

The rarely-spotted heartthrob sitcom actor, 45, isn’t the “Home Improvement” star to have been detained.

The former child actor’s co-star on the beloved 90s sitcom was arrested back in 1978 in Michigan at the Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport in Michigan for possession of cocaine.

The Golden Globe winner, now 73, plead guilty to felony drug trafficking and cooperated with police by naming other dealers.

He ultimately served over two years in a federal prison before being paroled in 1981.
