Popular Soap opera star Tyler Christopher was arrested on 11th November, 2019, which reports claimed was on the night he was celebrating his 47th birthday, for public intoxication, with a not so pleasing mugshot.
The arrest of Tyler Christopher took place in Martinsville, Indiana, and according to the report by TMZ, the General Hospital actor was booked on charges of public intoxication and, per Morgan County Jail records, is being held on $225 cash and $1,000 bond. There is no report yet confirming or denying whether Tyler has been released from jail.
According to the report, the Police had said they were contacted on November 11th by an Uber driver who drove Tyler Christopher home, because he had passed out in the back seat and urinated himself. He also allegedly had 2 fifths of bourbon on him, one of which was half drunk.
The actor’s mugshot features Tyler with a grown, unruly beard and his hair completely dishevelled. In the image, Tyler is also wearing, what appears to be, an orange shirt, which could have been provided from the jail where he is or was being held.
Tyler also appears to be sporting what might be a bruise on his nose, which may have been inflicted during an altercation or while Tyler was intoxicated, Hollywoodlife also reported.
