It
wasn't immediately clear what prompted the incident Friday night
at the celebrity hotspot Mr. Chow.
“Someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the
mouth,” a spokesperson for the actor said in a statement to the
newspaper. “He had to get stitches and is recovering. The police
were called and the matter is now in law enforcement’s hands.”
The Beverly Hills Police Department said it responded around 10
p.m. Friday to a reported assault with a deadly weapon and
determined it was unfounded.
“Instead, the incident involved a physical altercation between
parties,” said a department statement. “The BHPD conducted a
preliminary investigation and completed a report documenting the
battery. No arrests were made.”
A telephone message seeking details was left Sunday at Mr. Chow.
In an Instagram post Sunday morning, Foxx thanked those who had
checked in on him.
Apparently referring to the Mr. Chow incident, he wrote, “The
devil is busy … but I’m too blessed to be stressed.”
Foxx, who won an Academy Award for his portrayal of Ray Charles
in 2004's “Ray,” turned 57 on Friday.
