Former Home and Away actor Orpheus Pledger, 30, has been apprehended in Australia following a three-day police search. Authorities report he faces four charges for allegedly assaulting a woman. Initially granted bail for a court-ordered medical assessment, Pledger’s failure to appear led to a public appeal and an arrest warrant. He was eventually detained in Melbourne on Thursday, according to Victoria Police. Pledger’s manager, Craig McMahon, expressed shock over the assault allegations and mentioned Pledger’s struggles with mental health issues. Pledger has been a fixture on Australian television for over twenty years, including roles in Neighbours, Silversun, and CrashBurn, before his stint on Home and Away as Mason Morgan from 2016 to 2019.
