Jamie Foxx required stitches after getting hit in the face with a glass while celebrating his birthday at a restaurant in Beverly Hills, California, on Friday night.
“Someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth,” a representative for the actor said in a statement. “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 that it responded to a report of a possible assault with a deadly weapon at the celebrity hot spot Mr. Chow at 10:06 p.m. 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.”
It wasn’t immediately clear what prompted the incident.
In an Instagram post on Sunday morning, Foxx thanked those who had prayed for and reached out to him.
Referring to the Mr. Chow incident, the actor 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.
