"Home Improvement" star Jonathan Taylor Thomas was detained after reportedly resisting an officer in Westlake Village, California, Monday.
According to court records obtained by Fox News Digital, Thomas was detained at the Malibu/Lost Hills sheriff's station. After being booked, Thomas was released.
Law enforcement sources told TMZ the child actor was a passenger in a vehicle that was stopped by police. The outlet reported that deputies told Thomas to stay inside the vehicle, but he allegedly exited anyway. Thomas was also reportedly drunk at the time of the incident.
‘HOME IMPROVEMENT’ STAR JONATHAN TAYLOR THOMAS MAKES RARE APPEARANCE IN REUNION PHOTO WITH CO-STARS
Law enforcement told People magazine, "The driver was being detained for DUI investigation. Sometime during the investigation, Mr. Taylor decided he would exit the vehicle. Deputies told him to sit back down in the vehicle.
"He was uncooperative with them, failed to follow orders, and obstructed the investigation, so he was arrested for obstruction, and he was arrested for drunk in public."
Thomas' legal run-in came shortly after he reunited with his "Home Improvement" co-stars Patricia Richardson and Taran Noah Smith.
In August, Richardson sparked a wave of nostalgia when she shared a rare reunion photo with her former "Home Improvement" sons, Thomas and Smith, more than 25 years after the beloved sitcom ended.
"My other boys," Richardson captioned the snapshot with a heart emoji.

The reunion offered fans a rare glimpse of Thomas, who largely stepped away from Hollywood after becoming one of the biggest child stars of the 1990 s.
Thomas rose to fame as Randy Taylor on "Home Improvement" and became a major teen heartthrob, appearing in films, including "Tom and Huck" and "Man of the House." He also voiced young Simba in Disney’s 1994 blockbuster "The Lion King."
But at the height of his fame, Thomas made a surprising decision to walk away.

"I'd been going nonstop since I was 8 years old," Thomas told People in 2013. "I wanted to go to school, to travel and have a bit of a break."
Thomas left "Home Improvement" during its eighth and final season , with his character moving to Costa Rica.
Although he largely stayed out of the spotlight, Thomas briefly returned to acting, reuniting with TV dad Tim Allen on " Last Man Standing " from 2013 to 2015. He appeared in four episodes and directed three.
