A shocking arrest has brought attention back to the personal struggles of a beloved '90s sitcom star. Darius McCrary, known for his role as Eddie Winslow in the iconic show 'Family Matters', has been arrested near the U.S.-Mexico border, sparking a wave of emotions and questions among fans.
According to reports from reputable sources like People and TMZ, McCrary, now 49, was taken into custody by U.S. Border Patrol on October 5th due to an out-of-state warrant. He is currently being held without bail in a San Diego jail, as confirmed by court information obtained by both outlets.
But here's where it gets controversial: McCrary's representative, Ann Barlow, revealed to TMZ that the arrest warrant from Michigan was issued because McCrary missed a court appearance related to his failure to pay child support. This isn't the first time McCrary has faced such legal issues; he was previously arrested for the same reason in 2015 and again in 2023.
The actor's personal life has been under the spotlight before. His 2017 divorce from former Harlem Globetrotter Tammy Brawner led to legal complications. Brawner was granted full custody of their daughter Zoey, and McCrary was ordered to attend drug and alcohol abuse programs and a batterer intervention program to secure visitation rights, as reported by People.
Nexstar reached out to McCrary's representative for further comment but has not received an immediate response.
As we await McCrary's first court date, scheduled for October 15th, it's important to remember that celebrities are not immune to personal struggles.
