Viewers identify actor Clint Howard as playing serial killer suspect Tobias Lehigh Nagy in "The Trip (2)" episode.
On the second part of the 2 episode show about Kramer's sojurn to L.A. (seen in the Bay Area in syndication last week) does anyone know the actor who played Tobias Lehigh Nagy, the serial killer suspect who George and Jerry mistakenly allowed to escape from the police car? My recording cut off the credits for the show. Cheers

If this is true, perhaps it was Clint Howard, who was given guest star status on The Trip.
Yes, the part is played by Clint Howard, Ron's brother, hitherto best known as the kid on "Gentle Ben". I think another brother played the boy Charlie on the orig. "Star Trek", the kid who could kill w/his mind.
Any truth to the rumor they're all sons of Moe Howard?
Clint and Ron are the sons of Rance Howard, who played the blind man George led out to the street when he was looking for his glasses, in the Seinfeld episode "The Glasses".
There are only two Howard brothers, Ron and Clint. Clint was in Star Trek as the little alien in "The Cordomite (sp?) Manuever". The kid playing Charlie in "Charlie X" was someone else entirely.
Moe, Shemp & Curly Howard who are all related, aren't related to the other acting Howards at all!

yes it was clint howard... he was also in apollo 13 and i'd recognize him anywhere.
another tidbit: did anyone else notice that one of the cops drivin' jerry and george around is played by the same actor who played jake jarmell, one of elaine's ex-boyfriends? (jujy fruits, exclamation points, tortoise shell frames from maylasia... ring a bell?) just wanted to know if anyone else had noticed.
He kind of looked like Beaver from Leave it to Beaver...
It was Ron Howard's brother Clint who played the serial killer.

I don't know his name, but he's Ron Howard's brother. He always plays a weirdo.
I have a foggy notion that Clint Howard played the lead kid in the old show "Gentle Ben" (the bear--took place in the Florida Everglades). Must have been back in the late 60s?? I used to watch this show from when I was a kid. Anyone confirm/deny this?
