An actor on "Twin Peaks: The Return" has been arrested for attempted second-degree murder.
TMZ reports that Jeremy Lindholm, 41 -- who appeared as Mickey in Episode 6 with Harry Dean Stanton -- was assaulting his girlfriend with a baseball bat when he was arrested in Spokane, WA.
After the cops were called, Lindholm allegedly tried to flee the scene, still holding the bat. He then surrendered and was taken into custody.
The attack is being described as an "extremely violent assault." Surveillance video allegedly shows him hitting his girlfriend with the bat over a dozen times and choking her.

His girlfriend (whose name was not revealed) was transported to the hospital. Her injuries were reportedly not life-threatening.
The actor's agent, Anne Lillian Mitchell, said in a statement to People, "MAM represents Jeremy Lindholm. We have worked with him on bookings for television, film, and commercial projects. We are stunned at the news of his arrest. Our interaction with him has always been consistently professional. We will monitor the trial. Our thoughts are with all involved and their families."

On August 5, Lindholm tweeted out a photo of himself in front of a TV with a scene from "Twin Peaks: The Return" urging fans to tune into his episode.
