He originally starred in MTV’S The Real World in San Francisco back in 1994 when he appeared as a crazed bike messenger.

Since leaving the show, he has had several run-ins with the law.

In 2003, charges were dropped against him in another domestic violence case, but in 2009 he was sentenced to a year in Los Angeles County Jail after pleading no contest to charges of battery on his girlfriend.

That same year, Puck pleaded no contest to felony possession of ammunition in Los Angeles County;  he was placed on 3 years' probation.
