Former Family Matters actor Darius McCrary was arrested near the California-Mexico border by U.S. Border Patrol agents on Sunday. The arrest was reportedly made on a fugitive warrant from Michigan tied to a missed court appearance.
According to TMZ, McCrary is currently held in a San Diego jail. The warrant is classified under California’s laws for individuals wanted in another state for serious offenses. McCrary’s representative, Ann Barlow, says the warrant relates to unpaid child support, a claim he’s faced in the past.
