Buffy the Vampire Slayer actor Nicholas Brendon was arrested on grand theft and criminal mischief charges for allegedly trashing his hotel room at the Hilton in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Brendon, 43, reportedly caused $450 worth of damages to the room but refused to pay it during check out on Monday. He also refused to pay his $380 food and beverage tab.
People obtained a copy of the complaint affidavit staffers at the Hilton filed, which says he was found "passed out" in the office of one of the hotel’s executives.
On Tuesday night, a message appeared on his Facebook page that read, “We're aware of the arrest. We appreciate the love. We want nothing more than for Nick to focus on his health and personal well being at this time,” adding, “Please note that discussion is welcome, but I cannot promote negativity in any form. Trolls are NOT welcome. Everyone makes mistakes- and we hope to help him succeed at life in every possible way.”
Brendon and his wife of 5 months, Moonda Tee, announced their split last week.
