Tylor Chase, former star of ‘Ned’s Declassified’, placed on a 72-hour psychiatric hold due to homelessness, according to reports.
Tylor Chase, a former actor known for his role on Nickelodeon’s “Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide,” is currently held on a 72-hour psychiatric hold at a hospital in Southern California. This development follows concerning reports of chaotic behavior, including the alleged destruction of a motel room that was secured for him by castmate Daniel Curtis Lee.
Chase, who is now 36 years old, is receiving medical attention at a facility near Riverside. Reports indicate that he is expected to be transferred to a rehabilitation center once his condition stabilizes. The actions leading to his hospitalization were reportedly triggered during a recent visit with Jacob Harris, a community member who became involved with Chase’s situation after his former co-star, Shaun Weiss, had reached out for assistance. Harris recounted that a significant incident occurred during their three-hour visit on Christmas, prompting him to seek help.
During that time, Daniel Curtis Lee took to social media to confirm an alarming report that Chase had vandalized the motel room shortly after his arrival. According to Lee, Chase upended furniture and caused extensive property damage, raising serious concerns about his state of mind. Lee’s attempt to provide support to his former co-star was not without its challenges, as Chase’s family has reportedly faced difficulties in finding stable housing solutions for him in the past.
The Riverside Police Department noted that Chase has a history of declining offers for both treatment and temporary shelter, indicating a pattern of resistance to assistance. Compounding the situation, a viral video surfaced on social media earlier this month featuring a fan encountering Chase on the streets, which spurred considerable public interest and concern for his wellbeing. The video catalyzed support from not only strangers but also from individuals familiar with his past, reigniting discussions about mental health and homelessness in the entertainment industry.
Shaun Weiss, who himself has navigated similar struggles with addiction and homelessness, shared that there were options available for Chase, including a bed at a detox facility. Weiss conveyed gratitude toward a local recovery program that has expressed willingness to support Chase in achieving long-term stability. The situation underscores the ongoing challenges faced by former child actors in managing their lives post-fame, highlighting critical issues surrounding mental health and compassionate community intervention.
As Tylor Chase receives the necessary medical care, hopes remain high among his friends and fans that he will ultimately find a path toward recovery and stability.
