Actor Chris Zylka Faces Felony Charges After Violent Encounter With Ohio Police

Zylka, allegedly under the influence of drugs, resisted arrest and required multiple officers and paramedics to be subdued during the incident.

Chris Zylka, 39, was involved in a chaotic altercation with police in Warren, Ohio, after allegedly attempting to break into a woman's car and jumping into traffic on December 4.
Police reports indicate Zylka was foaming at the mouth, appeared to be under the influence of drugs, and was dressed inappropriately for freezing weather conditions.
After initially complying, Zylka resisted arrest, leading to a violent struggle in which officers used stun devices multiple times with little effect before subduing him with assistance from a third officer.
Bodycam footage shows Zylka with a bloody nose being restrained and later administered ketamine by paramedics to calm him down.
Zylka faces multiple felony and misdemeanor charges, including assault, resisting arrest, and disorderly conduct, with a warrant issued for his arrest as he is no longer in custody.
