Here is everything you need to know.
Bam Margera was located after a second rehab escape, going back to a new center
Bam Margera went missing after Saturday evening and was last spotted near LifeSkills South Florida residential facility.
He was missing for nearly two weeks before the officials found his location on Monday.
The cops arrived at the place with a crisis intervention team including Margera’s parents.
The team immediately held an intervention and called in other members of Margera’s family to speak to him.
It remains unclear if Margera’s wife, Nicole Boyd was involved or not.
Margera allegedly insisted on seeing the pair’s son, Phoenix Wolf who is four years old. However, his request was denied and he was told to get treatment before being able to meet his son.
The report added that Margera was afraid of missing the chance to prove he is a good father if he stays in the facility.
The stunt performer’s team further mentioned that Margera ‘voluntarily agreed’ to check into a new rehab facility and is presently on the way.
The Broward Sheriff’s Office confirmed that Deerfield Beach’s deputies got in touch with Margera on Monday night where he was found safe.
Bam Margera first went missing on the 13th of July
As stated previously, this marks the second time Bam Margera has fled from a rehab center sans permission in recent weeks.
The MTV alum first bailed from Delray Beach’s rehab center on the 13th of June without authorization.
Margera allegedly spoke with the facility’s manager about his plans to leave the premises. The father of one explained that he wanted to check into a different rehab, however, the authorities were having a difficult time locating him.
Luckily, the television actor was found safe and sound in a Florida hotel room on 15th June.
Sources claim that the Jackass star was sober when police picked him up. He was also cooperative when they took him to a second facility, from where he escaped most recently.
Margera reportedly told that he was unhappy with the rehab center. He bailed despite being present in the facility as a part of the court’s ordered Marchman Act. It states that ‘provide emergency assistance and temporary detention for individuals requiring substance abuse evaluation and treatment in the state of Florida.’
