According to reports, Raber was a passenger in car that was pulled over by  state troopers.

After law enforcement let the driver go, it's alleged that Raber stuck his head out of the car window and drunkenly yelled obscenities at the troopers.

The cops then followed the vehicle to a nearby home where, according to TMZ, Raber got into a screaming match with the driver who had apparently driven him home from a bar.

The reality star was arrested and charged.

Raber will next be seen in a new season of the show set to air on TLC on May 31. 

The series takes young adults who were raised in Amish communities and follows them as they explore life on the outside and whether they decide to remain out in the world or return to the Amish way of life.

Raber's arrest is another black eye for the cable network.

On Friday TLC pulled the plug on repeats of another of its reality shows 19 Kids and Counting after it emerged that one if its stars Josh Duggar had sexually molested underage girls, including some of his sisters, when he was 14.
