Norman Reedus and ex Helena Christensen's son, Mingus Reedus, reportedly made a shocking comment one day after he was arrested for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend. According to The New York Post, Mingus, 25, was walking outside of his New York City apartment on Sunday, August 24, when he said, "You want to watch me kill myself?" Mingus was wearing the same green shorts and black T-shirt he had on during his court appearance on Saturday, August 23, and was carrying his cat in a bag. While exiting the courtroom on Saturday, Mingus called out a nearby reporter, who he referred to as "ugly." Us confirmed on Saturday that Mingus was taken into police custody after an alleged assault. He is expected to appear in court on Tuesday, August 26. TMZ reported that Mingus was charged with reckless physical injury, aggravated harassment and second-degree harassment and pleaded not guilty to all charges. Norman Reedus' Son Mingus Pleads Not Guilty to Assault After Arrest: Report Mingus' attorney Priya Chaudhry claimed on Saturday that he was charged with misdemeanors that "speak volumes, and much louder than the unsupported prosecutor's in-court comments." "Equally important, the judge released Mingus on his own recognizance, with neither bail nor supervision," Chaudhry said in a statement to TMZ. "That significant judicial decision amplifies the volume. Mingus is presumed innocent and has pleaded not guilty. As the facts emerge, his innocence will become clear."

In September 2021, Mingus was arrested for assaulting an unidentified woman in New York City. Mingus claimed to the New York Daily News that the alleged victim and her friends were drunk and "swarmed out," which led him to throw "his arm out" in defense. Norman Reedus and Helena Christensen's Son Arrested for Alleged Assault Mingus pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct and was sentenced to five counseling sessions in relation to the incident, per The Sun. Attorney Isabelle Kirshner told People at the time that the charges were "baseless," alleging that Mingus "was the victim in this incident." Along with Mingus, Reedus shares daughter Nova, 6, with partner Diane Kruger. The Walking Dead actor and Christensen were together from 1998 to 2003. Christensen opened up about her bond with Mingus during a 2021 interview. "My son means many things to me," she told L'Officiel at the time. "You can teach your children a lot as they grow, but suddenly that dynamic changes and the next thing that happens is that you listen to them and you see yourself through their eyes, and that is a really incredible experience."
