Ezra Miller Arrested for the Second Time in Hawaii

ET can confirm that Miller was arrested Tuesday for assault in Pāhoa on the Big Island.

Ezra Miller has been arrested, once again. ET can confirm that The Flash actor was arrested for second-degree assault on Tuesday, after an incident at a residence in Pāhoa, on the Big Island of Hawaii. 

According to the Hawaii Police Department's Puna Patrol division, at 1:10 a.m. Tuesday, officers responded to a report of an assault that occurred at a get-together at a private residence in lower Puna.

According to police, Miller, whom they described as a visitor from Vermont, became irate after being asked to leave and allegedly threw a chair, striking a 26-year-old female on the forehead. The alleged attack resulted in an approximate half-inch cut, but police say the woman involved refused medical treatment.

Miller was arrested soon after, at 1:30 a.m. for assault in the second degree, after being located on the roadway during a traffic stop at the intersection of Highway 130 and Kukula Street in Kea'au.

Miller was released pending further investigation around 4:05 a.m. Tuesday morning. While Miller was released, Hawaii P.D. say the investigation is ongoing.

This is the second arrest for Miller, who was arrested last month on charges of disorderly conduct and harassment after an alleged incident at a karaoke bar in Hilo, Hawaii.

"South Hilo patrol officers responded to a report of disorderly patron at a bar on Silva Street. During the course of their investigation, police determined that the man, later identified as Ezra Miller, became agitated while patrons at the bar began singing karaoke," the police report stated.

Police allege that Miller "began yelling obscenities and at one point grabbed the microphone from a 23-year-old woman singing karaoke (disorderly conduct offense) and later lunged at a 32-year-old man playing darts (harassment offense)."

"The bar owner asked Miller to calm down several times to no avail," the report stated. "Miller was arrested and charged on both offenses and total bail was set at $500. He provided the bail and was released."

Shortly after last month's arrest, Miller was accused of threatening to bury a couple in Hawaii. According to court docs obtained by ET at the time, Stoyan Kojouharov and his wife, Niegel Hayles, filed a temporary restraining order against Miller, alleging that the 29-year-old actor burst into their bedroom and proceeded to threaten them.

"I will bury you and your slut wife," the couple claimed Miller said after entering their bedroom.

The couple also claimed that Miller stole Hayles' passport and wallet, which included her social security card, driver's license and bank cards, as well as several items belonging to Kojouharov.

The couple also claimed that they have and will continue to suffer emotional distress as a result of Miller's alleged behavior and are hoping the restraining order keeps Miller at bay.

In the filing, the couple alleges that due to Miller's fame and wealth, the actor's "access to weapons is much easier," and they worry that Miller could send "associates" to harass them.

ET has reached out to Miller's reps for comment, as well as Warner Bros. and DC Comics as to what Miller's string of arrests might mean for the actor's future in The Flash and the greater DC Universe.
