Comedian and actor T.J. Miller was arrested early Friday morning in Los Angeles after allegedly getting in a physical altercation with a cab driver who supports President-elected Donald Trump.

Star of HBO’s hit show “Silicon Valley,” Miller has become a popular figure in Hollywood. But he’s now in hot water after allegedly assaulting a driver because he spoke out in favor of Trump. The Los Angeles Police Department arrested Miller for battery.

LAPD officer Jenny Houser said the incident was officially recorded as a citizen’s arrest, meaning a civilian took the law enforcement matters into their own hands, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The celebrity was released later that morning without being forced to post bail.

Miller’s net worth is believed to be around $4 million. The median salary for taxi cab drivers in 2014 was $23,210, according to U.S. News & World Report.
