On the night of Sunday, January 26, around midnight, a 47-year-old actor was taken into custody by the Yreka Police Department in the parking area of a nearby Arby’s eatery, as reported by the Siskiyou County Sheriff’s Office.
Initially reporting the news, TMZ brought attention to an event that left Welling’s fans stunned.

Welling was arrested for a DUI charge related to a misdemeanor, with his blood alcohol level found to be equal to or above the legal limit of 0.08%.
