Norman Reedus's Son Mingus Arrested in NYC for Alleged Assault

Mingus Lucien Reedus, 25, son of actor Norman Reedus and supermodel Helena Christensen, was arrested in Manhattan on charges of assault in the third degree and criminal obstruction of breathing after an alleged incident involving a 33-year-old woman who sustained minor injuries. The incident began when Reedus reportedly called 911 to report the woman threatening suicide, but she told police that Reedus had assaulted her. This is not his first legal issue; in 2021, he was accused of punching a woman at the San Gennaro Festival and later accepted a plea deal in 2022 involving disorderly conduct and counseling. Mingus has worked as a model for major brands and has a strong artistic background influenced by his parents, though his recent legal troubles have drawn significant public and media attention. Authorities continue to investigate the case, and the impact of these incidents on his career and personal life remains uncertain. Reedus and those close to him have described the recent arrest as a misunderstanding.
