‘The Flash’ star Ezra Miller arrested for allegedly throwing chair at woman’s head

PAHOA (HawaiiNewsNow) - Ezra Miller, known for playing “The Flash,” was arrested early Tuesday in Hawaii after allegedly throwing a chair at a woman and leaving her with a gash to her forehead.

It’s the latest in a string of negative headlines involving the star.

And it came on the same day that Miller appeared via Zoom in a Hilo courtroom to plead no contest to a disorderly conduct charge, which stemmed from an incident at a karaoke bar last month.

In the assault case, Hawaii Island police said Miller was taken into custody about 1:30 a.m. Tuesday for second-degree assault. Police said Miller allegedly “became irate” when asked to leave an acquaintance’s home and threw a chair at a woman.

The 26-year-old victim reported a half-inch cut to her forehead.

Miller was arrested following a traffic stop at the intersection of Highway 130 and Kukula Street.

Police said the star was subsequently released pending further investigation.

Miller has played “The Flash” in several movies, but more recently has grabbed attention for their erratic behavior. Last month, Miller was arrested after allegedly ripping a microphone out of a woman’s hands and lunging at a man playing darts at the Margarita Village karaoke bar in Hilo.

On Tuesday afternoon, Miller appeared virtually in a Hilo courtroom to plead no contest to disorderly conduct stemming from that incident and agree to pay a $500 fine.

A harassment charge was dropped.

The star responded to the judge with mostly one-word answers and signed off with “aloha kakou.”
