In a restaurant in Beverly Hills, “Django” actor Jamie Foxx is celebrating with his family when he is met with hostility from the next table. The argument escalates, the Hollywood star hits a glass – the wound has to be stitched. The police are now investigating the exact circumstances.
Hollywood star Jamie Foxx required medical treatment after being hit in the face by a glass during a birthday party at a Beverly Hills restaurant. “Someone at another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth,” a rep for the film star said in a statement to the Los Angeles Times. “He required stitches and is on the mend. The police were called and the matter is now in the hands of law enforcement,” it added.
The incident occurred on Friday evening shortly after 10 p.m., according to the Beverly Hills Police Department. The police responded to an emergency call about a possible attack “with a deadly weapon.” However, I discovered on site that this was not the case. “Instead, the incident was a physical altercation between the parties,” according to the police press release. The assault was “documented” and no arrests were made.
Hostility from the neighboring table
The police then began further investigations and contacted representatives of the Hollywood star to obtain further information about the crime. What exactly led to the incident that took place in the posh restaurant “Mr. Chow” occurred, remained unclear according to a report in the “Los Angeles Times”.
According to the celebrity portal “TMZ”, Jamie Foxx was no longer present when the police arrived. The actor is said to have been celebrating with friends when the altercation occurred. Guests at the neighboring table were hostile to him. Just a few days ago, the 58-year-old released his Netflix special “What Had Happened Was…” in which he revealed that he suffered a stroke last year that quickly killed him.
