“Outer Banks” star Austin North was arrested for allegedly attacking employees at UMC Hospital in Las Vegas.
According to TMZNorth, 27, allegedly lost control at the medical center Tuesday night, to the point that he had to be restrained.
Police were called to the hospital for reports of an assault and battery that had taken place in the emergency unit.
When authorities arrived, they interviewed the victims, including several nurses and a phlebotomist, who claimed they were attacked by the Netflix star out of the blue.
North allegedly punched a nurse in the head, pushed the phlebotomist into a table and shoved another nurse in the face during the alleged attack, according to the outlet.
The phlebotomist told police they hit North in the head in self-defense with a nearby tray.
He was then restrained by security officers, but not before he allegedly hit one more person.
TMZ reports that North was handcuffed to a gurney until police arrived and read him his Miranda rights before arresting him for assault.
