Hodak, 40, was first arrested on Saturday, March 18, when Sweetin, 35, called authorities after he allegedly threatened to commit suicide. “During the course of the investigation, [Hodak] was found to possess a firearm,” the Los Angeles Police Department told Entertainment Tonight. “He is a prior felon, and a prior felon may not possess firearms.”

On Friday, March 24, Hodak was arrested again when he allegedly violated an emergency protective order stemming from the first arrest. The LAPD told the outlet that he “came back over to the residence which he was restrained from, and officers made contact, and he was arrested for violating a court order.”
