Brian Hickerson’s legal troubles continue to mount.
Hayden Panettiere‘s on-and-off boyfriend was briefly detained alongside his brother Zach Hickerson on Sept. 12 following an altercation that took place at a bar in South Carolina, Greenville police confirmed to E! News.
At approximately 9:10 PM, officers were dispatched to the establishment “in reference to a reported assault inside the restaurant.”
“Upon arrival, officers located several individuals involved in an altercation and detained multiple patrons while the incident was investigated,” the statement from the police department added. “Two individuals were identified as Brian Hickerson and Zachary Hickerson.”
Though authorities shared that Brian was released from the scene and was not charged, they determined that Zach was “highly intoxicated.”
“He began yelling profanities in a public setting,” the statement noted, “and as a result, he was taken into custody for disorderly conduct and transported to the Greenville County Detention Center.”
The altercation comes nearly a month after Zach and Brian were confirmed to have been by Hayden’s side when she died in the Greenville, S.C., apartment where she was staying on Aug. 16. She was 36.
