Tim Williams, known to TV viewers as "the Trivago guy", was arrested in Houston earlier this week after police say they found him passed out drunk behind the wheel of a vehicle.

The Houston Chronicle reports that the actor, a 52-year-old Houston native, was found with his foot on the brake in a moving lane of traffic Wednesday, April 10 at 3:15 PM.

Williams reportedly failed a field sobriety test and submitted to a blood test. He was released on $100 bond and is set to appear in court again on April 17.

KHOU-TV reports that Williams has been ordered to undergo a mental health assessment.

Williams has appeared in several television shows and films, but is perhaps most recognizable as the TV spokesman for Trivago.com, a Germany-based travel site that allows users to compare hotel prices. According to his IMDB page, he's represented the company since 2016.
