No, he's not that Chad Everett!
The hunky star who collected two Golden Globe awards and two Emmy nominations during his seven-year stint as Dr. Joe Gannon in TV's Medical Center (1969-1976) spells his first name with just one d - Chad.
But the OPP advise us this morning that a guy named Chadd (with two d's) Everett has been arrested in Blind River on a bunch of charges related to a break-in on Shurm Street and a subsequent police chase.
Here's what they sent us:
