It's a birthday present he would have done without: American actor Jamie Foxx was injured on Friday December 13, 2024, while celebrating his 57th birthday at the Mr. Chow restaurant in Beverly Hills (Los Angeles), reports CBS News.
Called to the scene to “manage an armed attack”, the local police noted that the alert was “unfounded”, but that a “physical altercation had indeed broken out between two parties”… without ever mentioning the name of the actor.
