Bam Margera, who was fired from Jackass’ most recent film, is missing after fleeing a rehabilitation center in Florida.

Jackass star Bam Margera has disappeared after fleeing a rehabilitation center in Florida.

According to TMZ, the reality TV set left the premises, where it was housed under court orders, and was reported missing on Monday (June 13). Margera allegedly told a treatment center manager that he was not satisfied with his experience there and that he planned to register at an alternative facility, according to TMZ.

The point of sale reports that Margera left the premises in a black car, and while police tried to locate him on Monday, his attempts were unsuccessful. Rehabilitation center staff said Margera was not a danger to himself or others, according to TMZ.

Margera posted a photo on her Instagram Tuesday (June 14th) night, sharing a photo of herself and her “new AA sponsor.” He captioned the picture: “The MMA fighter, chiropractor and ten-year-old Dominick, is my new AA sponsor.”

Along with her most recent post, Margera also shared a picture of her Instagram story, including a photo of her, her wife, and rapper Machine Gun Kelly.

Margera has struggled for years with addiction problems and first went into rehab in December 2009. Last month, TMZ reported that Margera had marked a year in a drug and alcohol treatment program and planned continue treatment classes in the coming months.

He told TMZ in May that he lived near the Florida treatment center in Boca Raton, where his wife and son had moved in with him.

Prior to her last stage of rehabilitation, Margera had been abandoned Jackass Forever after failing a drug test, breaking his contract. Margera allegedly tested positive for Adderall, appeared in a single stunt in the film, Variety reported earlier this year.

Johnny Knoxville, the co-star of Margher’s Jackass, said at the point of sale at the time: “Bam. He’s our brother, you know? You’re just waiting for him to get the help he needs, because we all care a lot about him.”
