The Flash Star Ezra Miller Arrested Following Bar Altercation

Ezra Miller, who plays The Flash in DC's cinematic universe, has been arrested for disorderly conduct and harassment following an altercation in a bar.

Hawaii News Now reports that the incident occurred at a karaoke bar on Silva Street, Honolulu. The 29-year-old actor allegedly yelled obscenities and started to become agitated when people at the bar started singing. It's claimed they grabbed the microphone from one woman mid-song, and later "lunged" at a man playing darts.

Police say that the bar owner attempted to get Miller to calm down several times before calling the authorities, but with no success. Miller was arrested, charged, and later released on a $500 bail.

This isn't the first time Miller has been called out for seemingly violent conduct. In April 2020, footage surfaced of the actor at a bar in Reykjavik, Iceland that appeared to show him choking a woman.

The distressing seven-second video (which can be seen here) shows someone, allegedly Miller, asking a young woman if she wants to fight. The woman appears to think it's a joke, as she exaggeratedly prepares for a fight with a smile on her face. Miller then grabs the girl by the throat and throws her to ground, prompting the person filming to call out "whoah, bro" and stop shooting.

The video caused plenty of confusion online, with many unable to agree whether or not it was staged. However, Variety reported at the time that a source present at the bar saw Miller losing their temper with a group of "pushy" fans - the aforementioned woman among them - before being escorted off the premises.

Miller has never publicly acknowledged the incident.
