UPDATE: A police source now claims that Jonathan Taylor Thomas kicked a sheriff’s deputy in the stomach before his arrest.
The insider tells TMZ that Thomas was the passenger in a car that was blocking traffic, and he exited the vehicle despite warnings from officers not to do so.
Thomas allegedly struck one officer before being taken into custody on public intoxication charges.
Read on for our initial coverage of this shocking incident:
In the years since he retired from acting, Jonathan Taylor Thomas has mostly avoided the pitfalls that afflict so many former child stars.
But in the type of incident that’s become all too familiar, the Home Improvement actor and ex-teen heartthrob was detained by police this week.
Taylor was reportedly detained in California after allegedly refusing to follow instructions from law enforcement during a traffic stop.
According to multiple outlets, Thomas was a passenger in a vehicle that was pulled over Monday in Westlake Village, California.
At some point during the stop, the 45-year-old reportedly got out of the vehicle after deputies instructed him to remain inside.
Law enforcement sources told TMZ that Jonathan was “uncooperative” and resisted officers. He was also reportedly suspected of being publicly intoxicated.
Thomas was subsequently taken to the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station, where he was booked on suspicion of obstructing or resisting an officer.
Fortunately for the actor, his latest brush with the law was relatively brief.
JTT was released from custody a short time later, according to jail records. As of Wednesday, there was no indication that the incident had resulted in any more serious charges.
Jonathan has maintained a low profile since stepping away from acting, making his latest headline especially surprising for fans who remember him as one of the biggest teen stars of the 1990s.
Unlike many former child stars — including his former Home Improvement co-star Zachery Ty Bryan — Jonathan has managed to stay out of trouble.
He’s also stayed out of the spotlight, having apparently decided that Hollywood fame wasn’t for him.
He left Home Improvement before the series ended and later attended Columbia University. While he made occasional acting appearances, including several cameos on Tim Allen’s Last Man Standing, he largely kept his private life away from the public eye.
That low profile continued for years. Taylor has spotted only rarely, making a 2026 reunion with his former Home Improvement castmates something of a momumental event.
His onscreen mom, Patricia Richardson, recently shared a photo featuring Taylor and co-star Taran Noah Smith, giving fans a rare glimpse at the former sitcom brothers together again.
Now, Jonathan is back in the headlines for a very different reason.
There is currently no indication that he faces anything more serious than the reported resisting/obstructing allegation, and neither Jonathan nor a representative has publicly commented on the incident.
For someone who spent much of his adult life avoiding the Hollywood spotlight, JTT certainly found an unexpected way to step back into it.
We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Republicans’ 2024 gains among young men have evaporated — and that could have instant ramifications this November, according to a new Cygnal poll.
President Donald Trump narrowly carried young men in 2024, according to exit polls, a big swing toward the GOP from past elections. But Democrats’ generic ballot lead among male likely voters ages 18-30 now sits at 57%-40%, according to the new survey.
Trump’s favorability is underwater at just 38%-55%, and Republicans’ net favorability among the demographic now sits at -9 points, with 40% viewing the party favorably and 49% unfavorably.
One silver lining for the GOP: Among all registered voters sampled, including those least likely to turn out in November, the Democratic generic ballot lead is much smaller, 44% to 41%.
“It is not a very good electorate, if you’re the Republican Party, among the people who are the most determined to vote,” said Alex Tarascio, pollster and principal at Cygnal, in an interview with POLITICO ahead of the poll’s release during Thursday’s Symposium on Young American Men.
Young men alone likely won’t determine control of Congress; they make up a fraction of the electorate, and they are less likely to vote than women of the same age or their older counterparts. But that lack of enthusiasm itself is a warning sign for Republicans, who will need to motivate their base ahead of November if they wish to maintain control of Congress.
The young men sampled are overwhelmingly concerned about cost-of-living issues — the same reason that many swung toward the GOP two years ago.
When given a list of options and asked which will matter most in determining their vote in November, a wide plurality — 29% — selected “inflation and the cost of living,” and another 14% chose “housing costs and being able to afford a place to live.” When asked what policies would make the biggest difference in their lives, the top answers again deal with the economy: The most-selected options were lowering the cost of goods, lowering housing costs and cutting taxes.
Many young men feel pessimistic about their ability to achieve success. When asked if they feel the rules in this country are set up to work for or against young men, 43% said they feel the rules are set up against them to 47% who said the rules are set up in their favor.
That pessimism bleeds into how they view other institutions. Both the Democratic Party (-1) and Republican Party (-9) have net-negative favorability among the demographic, and the White House’s current occupants are even more unpopular: Vice President JD Vance sits at 37% favorability with -10 net favorability, while Trump is at 38% favorability with -17 net.
“Young men are pretty down on institutions and political figures, and this one isn’t any exception to that,” Tarascio said.
Republicans successfully targeted young men and low-propensity voters in 2024 to help propel them to victory largely in part by having Trump sit for interviews with podcast hosts and influencers popular with young men. Trump has yet to return to those forums en masse ahead of the midterms, but he’s repeatedly told voters to pretend as if he’s on the ballot in November.
But Trump may no longer be the motivator he once was for turning out young, male, low-propensity voters. Among those surveyed who were least likely to vote, Trump’s net favorability is -22, lower than the respondents most likely to vote, where his net favorability is -19.
“If Trump gets in front of them, I don’t think it’s a bad bet, but for some of these people it could backfire,” Tarascio said.
The poll was conducted Sept. 15-18 with a sample of 800 registered male voters ages 18-30. The margin of error is plus or minus 3.46 percentage points.

Ree Drummond’s family is dealing with some very serious legal trouble.
The Pioneer Woman star’s 23-year-old foster son, Jamar Goff, was arrested in Alabama earlier this month and is facing several charges, including aggravated assault on a police officer.
According to court records reviewed by TMZ, Jamar was booked into Jefferson County Jail in Birmingham on September 15.
He was charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance, aggravated assault on a police officer, drug paraphernalia possession and attempting to elude an officer.
His bond was reportedly set at $37,000, and Jamar remained in custody as of the latest reports. It is unclear whether he has obtained an attorney.
According to court documents, an officer was called to the University of Alabama at Birmingham campus after receiving a report about a suspicious person.
The officer allegedly found Jamar sleeping shirtless near a fountain.
When officers woke him and asked what he was doing on campus, Jamar allegedly said he was waiting for someone to arrive and sell him “ice,” which the documents identify as another term for methamphetamine.
The situation escalated after officers allegedly discovered that Jamar had an outstanding warrant.
According to the court documents, Jamar then ran from police and eventually ended up at a nearby hospital.
It was there, authorities allege, that Jamar struck an officer with an open-handed palm strike.
Police also allegedly found methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia in Jamar’s possession.
This is not the first time that the Drummond family has encountered legal issues. Daughter Paige Drummond was arrested for public intoxication in 2019.
For Ree, this is undoubtedly a difficult development involving someone she has publicly described as an important member of her family.
Ree and her husband, Ladd Drummond, welcomed Jamar into their family as a foster son in 2018, after he became close with their sons through football.
Ree eventually opened up about Jamar publicly, explaining that the family initially wanted to give him privacy while he adjusted to his new home.
By 2020, however, she said Jamar had become an “inextricable part” of the family.
Ree has also shared loving tributes to Jamar on social media over the years, including a 2023 birthday post in which she wrote about her hopes for his future.
“I can’t wait to watch his future unfold,” she wrote at the time. “I know it will be filled with good things. I love you, Jamar!!”
For now, Jamar will have to deal with the serious allegations against him as the legal process moves forward.
Ree’s representatives have been contacted for comment but have not yet responded.
We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.
