UPDATE
10:03 AM PST — Belton police tell TMZ … Rudy Youngblood was arrested Tuesday after an officer stopped to talk to the owner of a vehicle parked near a Lake Belton boat ramp at about 12:20 AM.
During the stop, it was discovered the Travis County Sheriff’s Office had a warrant out for his arrest for assaulting a family or household member by impeding their breathing or circulation.
Furthermore, a white crystalline substance was located on the actor during the arrest, police say. He is still in Bell County Jail with additional charges pending the lab results.
Actor Rudy Youngblood — best known for his role in Mel Gibson’s Oscar-nominated film “Apocalypto” — has been arrested for allegedly launching a violent attack on someone close to him, according to police.
Rudy was arrested by Belton police officers in Texas early Tuesday morning … after he allegedly assaulted a family or household member by impeding their breathing or circulation, cops said.
He’s being held at the Bell County Jail on a $20,000 bond.
TMZ has reached out to the Belton Police Department for more information … so far, no word back.
This isn’t his first run-in with the law — we reported Rudy was arrested for disorderly intoxication in Miami back in 2017 … but the charges were eventually dropped.
In addition to appearing in 2006’s “Apocalypto” as Jaguar Paw, Rudy has credits in 2023’s “The Haunting of Hell Hole Mine,” 2021’s “Dandelion Season” and more.
He was cast as the lead in the period drama “La Matadora” this year, and the film is currently in pre-production. He has 5 other projects in various stages of production as well.
