On Wednesday, Bam Margera was arrested after causing a disturbance at a restaurant where his ex-wife Nicole Boyd and their toddler Phoenix were dining. In an incident reported by TMZ, the “Jackass” star shouted at a woman inside a Thai restaurant in Burbank, California, at about 3:45 pm local time. Although Boyd and Phoenix were present at the restaurant when he allegedly yelled at the woman, it’s unclear whether the woman was his ex-wife. Boyd, 39, filed for divorce only a month before he was detained. Margera will either have to pay $500 bail or remain in custody until he sobers up, according to TMZ sources. Police, who arrived at the restaurant after Margera wasn’t able to take care of himself, reported that the 43-year-old was too drunk to care for himself.

Consequently, he was arrested and charged with felony public intoxication. He appears furious in videos posted on social media of Bam Margera at the restaurant. From outside, police watch Margera enter and exit the eatery. In an Instagram Live video, comedian Evan Breen, who was also at the venue, captured Margera, who was clearly upset, rushing into and out of the restaurant. An argument appears to be taking place between one of the responding cops and the stuntman, who had been removed from the restaurant by police.
‘Jackass’ Fans Worried After Bam Margera Is Arrested A Second Time In A Month
Bam Margera, 45, was detained on Wednesday after violating the peace at a restaurant where he was dining with his ex-wife Nicole Boyd, 34, and his toddler Phoenix, 5. The ‘Jackass’ actor Margera shouted at a woman in a Thai restaurant in Burbank, California, at around 3:45 pm local time, reports TMZ. In spite of the fact that Bam Margera’s ex-wife Boyd and his son Phoenix were at the restaurant, it’s unclear whether the woman he allegedly yelled at was his ex-wife. Boyd, 39, had filed for divorce a month before he was detained. Margera must pay $500 bail or remain in jail until he gets sober, according to TMZ sources. Police arrived at Margera’s restaurant to find him too drunk to care for himself, according to sources. Due to this, he was arrested and charged with felony public intoxication. A number of social media users have posted videos of Margera being furious at the restaurant. Police watch Margera enter and exit the eatery as she enters and exits. During an Instagram Live video, rapper Evan Breen, who was also at the event, captured Margera rushing into and out of the restaurant. Margera appeared upset in the video. As the video progressed, the stuntman, who had been removed from the restaurant by police, was shown arguing with one of the responding officers on the pavement.
In an altercation involving domestic violence, Margera allegedly kicked his current girlfriend during his detention earlier this month. Page Six reported that the 43-year-old was released from detention the following day after posting $50,000 bail. Margera’s claim of sobriety didn’t matter to Boyd; she had to make the “hard choice” to protect their son and themselves. In addition, she requested spousal support, legal custody, and child support for Phoenix. As a response, Margera got his son’s name tattooed above his eyebrow and flaunted it on Instagram. It has been difficult for the former skateboarder to deal with addiction and has run into legal issues numerous times in recent years. As well, he escaped three times from a court-ordered rehabilitation facility in 2022 before he was finally found in a pub a few days after he was transferred to an outpatient program. Page Six reports that Steve-O pleaded with pal Bam Margera to “choose recovery” amid his struggles with drugs and alcohol.
I keep thinking, him changing is just around the corner. It's just not happening. It's sad. Hope he truly finds peace before it's too late.

Unfortunately it feels like a lost cause at this point. He hasn’t been the same since Ryan died, and he clearly doesn’t want the help. I really wish he’d turn his life around.
