Former Nickelodeon star Tylor Chase has been in the headlines ever since he was spotted on the streets of New York. Despite being helped by his co-stars and fans offering him help, he seems to be back on the streets. Amid this, Chase's father opened up about the current situation his son is facing. Let's delve in to know more.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, Tylor Chase's father, Jacob ‘Jake’ Harris, a Los Angeles-based influencer and entrepreneur, took decisive action to secure help for his son. He said, "I was able to finally get hold of a crisis centre that would come out and do a same-day evaluation. They determined he needed immediate help and brought him to a local hospital for a 72-hour treatment."
He further updated about the condition of his son Tylor, "He's in good care now. And the future is looking bright. He just needed someone to actually do something to help."
On Christmas, Daniel Curtis Lee shared an update stating that the motel room was damaged and trashed and that he had gotten it for Chase, as he asked advice from his followers on how to proceed in trying to help his troubled friend.
Reportedly, Lee began his video, shared on TikTok, by saying, "Happy Holidays, everyone. I hope you're somewhere nice and warm with your families. Unfortunately, Tylor Chase is not, and this is the case for millions of other Americans. I don't understand how a system could be in place, right?. We have all these social systems where help should be provided for these people facing mental health issues and drug abuse issues, right? Taxpayers vote on this stuff all the time."
Moreover, Lee also said how he got a call from the management of the motel and said they were upset. He stated, “The door was left open. Why is there a microwave in the tub? The refrigerator was turned over. I just feel so devastated.”
He further said, "I think that it is time to put in a call for 5150, but I also need insight from your call. Do you think that's fair to have a third party call and get someone entry into a facility when you know they need the treatment and they're gravely mentally disabled? We have to do something before it's too late for Tylor. We have to do something, guys. And I just want a little insight."
Speaking to TMZ, Devon Werkheiser opens up about his former castmate Tylor Chase; he stated, "Tylor was a sensitive, sweet and kind kid. I haven't seen Tylor in almost 20 years since the show ended. Anyone who has dealt with severe addiction and deep mental health issues knows it's an unbelievably challenging situation if they don't want to help."
He further added, "It's an everyday uphill battle to course correct. It requires a ton of support and patience and time."
