Ezra Miller has been arrested again in Hawaii — this time for allegedly throwing a chair that hit a woman in the forehead.
Hawaii Island Police Department booked the “Flash” star, 29, early Tuesday morning and is facing a second-degree assault charge, Page Six confirmed.
According to a press release from the police department, Miller was at a private residence in lower Puna and allegedly became angry after being asked to leave. They allegedly threw a chair, which hit a 26-year-old female on the forehead and resulted in a half-inch cut.
Miller was reportedly arrested at a traffic stop around 1:30 a.m. in Kea’au and released from jail around 4 a.m. The investigation is still ongoing.
In late March, Miller, who identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, was also arrested, but for disorderly contact.
They were at karaoke at the time and allegedly grabbed the microphone from a woman who was mid-song. They also allegedly lunged at a man who was playing darts.
Miller was charged and released after posting $500 bail.
Hawaii police said they have been the subject of 10 calls to their department in less than a month.
One of the calls was from a couple who filed a restraining order against the “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” actor, claiming they busted into their bedroom and threatened them, stating, “I will bury you and your slut wife.”
“The respondent is famous and wealthy,” an order request obtained by Page Six stated. “This makes access to weapons much easier; as well as sending associates to harass the petitioner.”
However, the couple later decided to drop the restraining order. It’s unclear why they decided to pull it.
