Home Improvement actor Zachery Ty Bryan is facing multiple cases after strangling his girlfriend following a night out in a club.
According to TMZ, the Home Improvement star went out at a club with his girlfriend before the arrest.
A neighbor, reportedly, called the authorities to inform them about a domestic dispute.
Meanwhile, the police report says that Bryan’s girlfriend herself revealed that they argued that night. After a few minutes, the actor suddenly wrapped his hands around her neck and strangled her.
His girlfriend further revealed that when she tried to dial 911, Bryan took her phone away from her. When she had the chance to run, she, reportedly, fled across their home to hide.
The authorities later arrested the 39-year-old actor in Eugene, Oregon.
