Bam Margera Has Reportedly Been Found And Placed On Psychiatric Hold After Brother Asked For Help Locating Him

Bam Margera in an interview on Dr. Phil.

Bam Margera has unfortunately been facing a number of issues as of late. Reports have been swirling about the Jackass alum battling addiction and dealing with his divorce from former partner Nikki Boyd, who he shares a child with. More recently, he’s made concerning comments (some of which have been chronicled on social media) and was reportedly missing. This past weekend, his older brother, Jess, reached out to fans on social media to ask for help locating him. Now, Bam has been found and placed on psychiatric hold. 

It was believed that the former reality TV star was going to Los Angeles, and that’s where authorities ultimately caught up with him, according to TMZ. The LAPD located the 44-year-old Sunday afternoon at Trejos’ Tacos. Apparently, law enforcement was able to track him down using his phone. When he was found, the MTV alum apparently acted erratically. Those purported actions are what led the police to determine that he needed to be put under a 5150 hold.
