Redmond O’Neill, 33, has been charged with attempted murder in Los Angeles
The son of actor Ryan O’Neal and the late Farrah Fawcett has been charged with attempted murder in an alleged crime spree last month.
The spree included randomly attacking five men and robbing a 7-Eleven convenience store.
Los Angeles police say Redmond O’Neal was charged Friday.
KABC-TV reports that the 33-year-old O’Neal, who’s struggled with drug addiction, is charged with punching or stabbing five men over several days last month in the Venice Beach and Palms neighborhoods.
Police say two men were seriously injured, including one who was stabbed in the face.
‘Initially, the victim thought that the suspect (O’Neal) had merely punched him in the back,’ LAPD said in a statement.
‘However, once paramedics arrived, the paramedics discovered that the victim had sustained serious stab wounds to the left side of his body,’ it read.
The same day witnesses say a man was found in a pool of blood with stab wounds to his face and body and the description of the suspect matched O’Neal.
O’Neal already pleaded not guilty to a May 8 robbery and other charges, including possessing methamphetamine and heroin.
He’s been jailed for a month. An email seeking comment from his attorney wasn’t immediately returned.
