Former “Silicon Valley” star T.J. Miller was arrested late Monday night at LaGuardia Airport in New York.

The Hollywood Reporter reported the following:

Todd Joseph “T.J.” Miller was taken into custody Monday night at LaGuardia Airport, the United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter. 

The former Silicon Valley star was arrested for allegedly “intentionally conveying to law enforcement false information about an explosive device on a train traveling to Connecticut,” according to authorities. 

Miller allegedly made the bomb threat on March 18. 

If there’s a simple rule to follow when on trains and airplanes, I’d say that it’s you should leave the comments about bombs and explosives at home when you leave for the trip. I’m not an expert, but it seems like a wise thing to do.

It’s so sad how far Miller has fallen since in the past 18 months. He used to be the star of one of the coolest shows on television, and now he’s been arrested again. He was arrested back in 2016 for allegedly striking an Uber driver over Donald Trump.

The man has fallen hard and he has fallen fast. He’s also getting publicly dragged by a former co-star, and you know that can’t be fun. I really just feel bad for the guy at this point. He’s clearly struggling with something, and could probably use all the help he can get.

Let’s hope this turns out to just be a blip on the radar, and Miller is able to get back to being a funny man because this is just sad.
