‘Little Rascals’ Star Bug Hall Arrested In Ohio
“Little Rascals” star Bug Hall has found himself in a world of trouble. According to a new report, the actor was arrested in Ohio and charged with failure to appear for a court date from over a year ago. This isn’t the first time Hall has been in trouble with the law. In 2020, Hall was arrested and thrown behind bars for allegedly trying to inhale a volatile chemical. In 2026, the Texas native announced he was going off the grid to focus on his life as a “radical Catholic extremist.”
‘Little Rascals’ Star Bug Hall Behind Bars Once Again After Being Arrested In The Buckeye State
According to reports from Page Six and TMZ, the actor, best known for Alfalfa Switzer in the “Little Rascals” and Newt Shaw in “The Big Green,” was arrested and taken into custody in Ohio. The actor was reportedly given a traffic citation in October 2024 for not having liability insurance.
Hall’s arrest is the latest development in the actor’s troubled last few years. Another report from KSAT reveals the former child star was arrested at the America’s Best Value Inn in Texas in 2020 and hit with one charge of “possessing and inhaling/ingesting a volatile chemical.” Per the report, Hall was “huffing” the substance, which landed him behind bars. He was later released on a $1,500 bond.
‘Little Rascals’ Star Vows To Live A Modest Life After Becoming A ‘Radical Catholic Extremist’
Hall was in the headlines earlier this year when he announced he was now living life as a “radical Catholic extremist,” per the Daily Mail.
The actor told the outlet that he’d taken a “vow of poverty” and moved his family to an 80-acre lot where they plan to live off the grid.
Hall admitted to being a “medieval moralist” who left Hollywood behind in 2020 before relocating to different states, including Texas, Michigan, Ohio, and Arkansas.
Hall went on to say that being in the entertainment industry taught him to live a life of “manipulation” before saying that being a public figure no longer served him.
“I didn’t want to go work some job that was basically meaningless, making widgets to entertain people or distract people,” he said.
‘Little Rascals’ Star Bug Hall Gets Candid About Living Life As A Celebrity And A Religious Person
Hall had gotten even more candid about his personal life in an April 2025 YouTube video, in which he said he no longer felt being a celebrity aligned with his faith.
“It was a hard realization, but it was something that I was pretty firm on, and I still am. The irony was that I loved the work,” he said. “I wasn’t sort of disillusioned in terms of my love of work. I really, really loved it. I loved film and TV and the process of storytelling, more than any of you.”
In the video, Hall admitted to donating a significant portion of his material possessions to avoid needing an income. He explained that if an expense came up, he’d take on odd jobs for cash.
“It really wasn’t all that great of a sacrifice compared to what our Lord had planned to give me in return,” he said. “The fruits of that decision to live this radical lifestyle.”
Another Child Star Dealing With Legal Woes
Hall isn’t the only former child star who has garnered negative attention lately, according to The Blast.
“Home Improvement” alum Zachery Ty Bryan was accused of displaying aggressive behavior toward his girlfriend, allegedly telling her to “shut the f-ck up or I’m gonna shut you up” during an argument.
Bryan was later accused of getting into another altercation in the summer of 2025, during which he allegedly sprayed his dog in the face with an unknown substance, locked himself in the room with the animal, and punched a door so hard it spllit from its frame.
Bryan Addressed The Claims In An Emotional Statement
Bryan broke his silence about the claims shortly after news broke, admitting he “deeply” regrets his behavior before condemning “domestic violence in any form.”
According to Bryan, he’s dealt with personal struggles regarding sobriety and addiction for years, which played a role in his latest legal woes.
“The truth is, I’ve struggled with the lasting effects of early fame, addiction, and poor decision-making, which have hurt people I care about and led to repeated legal issues, including DUIs and past domestic incidents. This latest situation, involving a restraining order and serious accusations, has been a painful wake-up call,” he said.
