Actor had stitches after incident, which comes a year after her suffered a stroke. Jamie Foxx’s 57th birthday party was cut short on Friday night (13 December) after he was left injured in a physical altercation. The Django Unchained actor, who recently revealed he suffered a stroke last year, had been celebrating his birthday at Mr Chow in Beverly Hills when someone from another table threw a glass at him, according to a statement shared by his publicist.
“Jamie Foxx was at his birthday dinner when someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth,” the representative said. “He had to get stitches and is recovering. The police were called and the matter is now in law enforcement’s hands.”.
It comes as Beverly Hills Police Department said they received a call shortly after 10pm local time on Friday about a “possible assault with a deadly weapon” at the restaurant. Officers arrived at the scene and determined the report was “unfounded” and that instead the incident involved a “physical altercation between parties”.
On Sunday (15 December), Foxx shared a post on Instagram saying: “The devil is a lie. Can’t win here… thank you to everybody that pray and check on me… when your light is shining bright… they try to bring you darkness … but they don’t know that you’re built for it… the lights have been shining bright.”.
