Foxx "was at his birthday dinner when someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth," the actor's spokesperson said Saturday in a statement provided to ABC7. "He had to get stitches and is recovering. The police were called and the matter is now in law enforcement's hands."
Officers responded shortly after 10 p.m. to a report of a possible assault with a deadly weapon at the Mr. Chow restaurant, according to the Beverly Hills Police Department.
The officers determined that the report was unfounded and that the incident instead "involved a physical altercation between parties," a news release said.
The Police Department "conducted a preliminary investigation and completed a report documenting the battery," the agency said. No arrests were made.
