Police responded to Jamie Foxx’s California home after a reported stabbing during the actor’s annual Halloween music festival, Skvlk Fest, on Saturday, 7 November.
According to TMZ, deputies from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office arrived at Foxx’s Thousand Oaks mansion while the event was under way. A man reportedly suffered a superficial wound to the neck and received treatment from paramedics at the scene.
TMZ reported that police arrested a man on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon. Footage from the aftermath showed several people being led away in handcuffs as hundreds of attendees left the property.
PEOPLE said it had contacted the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office and Foxx’s representatives for comment.
Signs posted around the venue reportedly prohibited attendees from bringing real or imitation weapons, including props intended for Halloween costumes.
Skvlk Fest, pronounced “skulk”, is a Halloween-themed music festival organised by Foxx’s 18-year-old daughter, Anelise. The event features carnival-style rides and performances by artists including Tyga, Ty Dolla $ign, Sexyy Red and Leon Thomas.
This year’s festival was originally scheduled for 31 October but was postponed because of rainy weather in California.
The event also faced a security incident last year when a guest reportedly threw a glass bottle at rapper GloRilla during her performance.
Foxx confronted the audience member responsible, questioning why anyone would throw an object at a performer. He expressed disappointment and defended the rapper before she resumed her set and finished her performance.
Foxx shares Anelise with his former partner Kristin Grannis. He also has a 32-year-old daughter, Corinne, with his former partner Connie Kline.
On 4 November, PEOPLE reported that Foxx and his girlfriend, Alyce Huckstepp, 31, had welcomed a baby. The couple have not publicly disclosed the newborn’s name or date of birth.
