Jamie Foxx gets stitches after glass was thrown at him in Beverly Hills restaurant, no arrests made so far

Hollywood actor Jamie Foxx was injured and required medical attention after a glass was thrown at him and it hit his mouth when he was celebrating his birthday at a restaurant in Beverly Hills.

“Someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth,” a spokesperson for the actor said in a statement to The Los Angeles Times.

“He had to get stitches and is recovering. The police were called and the matter is now in law enforcement’s hands," the spokesperson said.

Beverly Hills Police said its officers responded to the reported possible assault with a deadly weapon at Mr. Chow restaurant.

"Upon investigation, officers determined that the reported assault with a deadly weapon was unfounded. Instead, the incident involved a physical altercation between parties," police said in the statement.

The police statement, however, did not mention Foxx's name.

It is still not clear what triggered the incident.

Police said no arrest has been made so far.

"The BHPD conducted a preliminary investigation and completed a report documenting the battery. No arrests were made," police said.

Apparently referring to the incident, Foxx on Sunday wrote on Instagram: " 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."

Foxx gained his career breakthrough as a featured player in the sketch comedy show In Living Color from 1991 to 1994.

Following this success, he was given his own sitcom, The Jamie Foxx Show, in which he starred, co-created and produced from 1996 to 2001.

Foxx received acclaim for his portrayal of Ray Charles in the film Ray (2004), winning the Academy Award for Best Actor.
