Gary Coleman is a free man. (But here's hoping this punim stayed locked up.)

The former Diff'rent Strokes star was released from Utah County Jail on Monday afternoon after posting $1,725 bail. He's due in court Feb. 8.

Coleman was arrested Saturday at his Santaquin home after cops responded to a 911 call about a "civil disturbance." Authorities opted to keep him in custody after finding an outstanding warrant for his arrest for skipping a court date pertaining to a domestic violence charge filed against him last summer.

Further details about the "civil disturbance" that brought police to his home in the middle of the day have not been forthcoming.
