Bam Margera’s brother says troubled skateboarder missing again days after threatening to ‘smoke crack until I’m dead’
Skateboarder Bam Margera, 43, might be in trouble again.
In a tweet on Sunday morning, Margera’s brother, Jess Margera, sent out a message urging members of the public to contact authorities if they know where he is.
“If anyone in the LA area knows of bams current whereabouts or a hotel he might be at please call the LAPD immediately,” he wrote on the social media platform.
The message continued, “I am trying to get them to ping his phone but as usual it’s a whole huge process and I don’t think we have that kind of time. If you guys could all retweet this that would be really cool of you. Thanks for your help.”
Reps for Magera had no comment when contacted by The Post.
A rep for the Los Angeles Police Department told The Post that they had no comment, but are aware of the tweet.
Margera’s attorney, Peter Thompson, told TMZ that the “Jackass” star may have traveled to Los Angeles in an attempt to see his son, Phoenix, 5, who he shares with ex-wife, Nicole Boyd.
Thompson told the outlet that he was in contact with Margera yesterday, and is going to attempt to reach out again.
Over the past years, Margera has struggled with substance abuse, and has been in and out of rehab over the last decade.
Margera’s alleged disappearance comes after he made some concerning posts on social media this week about not being able to see his son amid his ongoing divorce from Boyd.
In February, Boyd filed for legal separation after 10 years of marriage.
“I haven’t seen Phoenix in two f–king months,” the star said in a profanity-filled social media rant Thursday that has since been deleted, Page Six reported.
“I have to wake up every day, knowing that I probably won’t get to talk to him or see him.”
The former skater claimed that his ex has cut off any contact between him and his son, and blamed her, as well as his mother and father, April and Phil Margera, for “driving him to drink.”
In the since-deleted clip, he also threatened, “I’m going to smoke crack with the bums down at the f–king boardwalk until I’m dead unless you deliver me f–king Phoenix. Get to work Nikki, or anyone that wants to help. I want Phoenix.”
In response, Boyd’s attorney, David Glass, told TMZ, “Unfortunately, that’s not how the addictions work. People’s behavior does not drive others to drink. This is a typical defense mechanism, and it shows that Bam may not have learned much in his past addiction’s treatment.”
The statement continued, “You have to take responsibility for your own actions. Nikki sincerely hopes that Bam can first achieve and then maintain sobriety, for his own good, and for the good of their son.”
This week, it was also revealed that she is seeking $15,000 per month in child support as well as sole physical and legal custody of their son, according to court documents obtained by TMZ.
Right now, Boyd is “open” to having a supervised visitations for Margera to see his son, but only if he completes drug and alcohol rehab programs first, according to the outlet.
According to TMZ, the last time that Margera saw his son was on March 29 – when he was seen screaming at Boyd in a restaurant in Burbank – and his legal team claimed that he’s not allowed to see his son on FaceTime or call him.
In April, the “Viva La Bam” star turned himself in to Pennsylvania police after they announced a warrant to arrest him for assaulting his brother on a handful of charges – including four counts of terroristic threats with intent to terrorize another and one count of simple assault.
He was released on a $50,000 bond, and his court hearing was pushed back to July, according to a local Patch site. Shortly afterwards, he claimed in a now-deleted social media post that he would “stop drinking.”
According to the police report, his brother had caught him peeing in the kitchen sink, which then caused him to become “aggressive” and punch his brother in the face, according to NBC. He also left his brother an “ominous” note at the time.
By the time police arrived to the scene, he had escaped into the woods.
Margera’s lawyer denied the claims.
