As daily national news
He is now being held in preventive detention after being released on bail after his arrest Friday for "belligerent behavior" at a New Hampshire private high school, police said.
Allman was charged with four misdemeanors and one misdemeanor: two counts of simple assault and one count of criminal trespass and criminal threats.Allman, whose father was the late musician Gregg Allman, was charged with disorderly conduct, which is illegal in the state but not a crime.
Concord police responded to reports that Allman, who reportedly has no connection to the school, had been disturbing people in St.John's school cafeteria.Paul around 7pm local time on Friday.
He will be arraigned in Concord County District Court on April 20, local station WMUR reported.Allman and his mother, Cher, have not released a statement about the ongoing investigation or the second arrest.
Allman's legal troubles came a few years after Cher filed for custody of her son amid claims that his life was "at risk" due to "serious mental and substance abuse issues."
Court documents, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court in December 2023, state that custody is "urgently needed" for Allman.Through her lawyers, Cher argued that her son was unable to manage his own financial resources or protect his assets from harm or injury.
The proposed council documents state that a widower is entitled to regular distributions from a trust established by his late father.However, Sher was "afraid" that his son would spend the money on drugs, "leaving Eliyahu with no assets to support himself and endangering Eliyahu's life."
According to People, by September 2024, Cher withdrew her offer of custody of her son, as the two "reached a private settlement" after a nine-month legal battle.
This outcome allows the parties to focus on healing and rebuilding their family bonds, a process that began during mediation and continues today, a statement shared with People from Allman's attorneys, Avi Levy and Steven Brumer of Cage and Miles, LLP, reads.
