AceShowbiz - Bam Margera is on the road to recovery again. The "Jackass" star, who had escaped his court-ordered rehab program multiple times, reportedly returned to the treatment center after he was spotted at a Florida bar earlier this month.
Revealing the news was TMZ. According to the outlet, the 42-year-old skateboarder is not required to stay at an in-patient facility because of his various fleeing attempts. Sources claimed, "They're gonna try an outpatient approach and pray for different results."
Though so, Bam still needs to follow some restrictions. The stunt performer has been ordered to stay sober, attend classes and continue seeing a psychiatrist.
The last time Bam left the court-ordered residential facility in Florida was on September 5. On the next day, Bam was seen leaving the 57 Tavern in Sarasota with a mystery woman.
Back in June, Bam disappeared from the facility twice. After he went missing for the first time, he had previously agreed to return voluntarily to the clinic after being found, and a crisis intervention team escorted him back to the facility.
The star's manager had reported him missing after he told the clinic manager he would be checking himself into a different rehabilitation establishment in the area before he fled the premises in a black sedan. He is said to have told staff at the center he was "unhappy" and was planning to "split."
Less than two weeks later, Bam went missing again but was found by a crisis team including his parents, who held an intervention after locating him. He allegedly fled the facility because he was concerned he wouldn't see his son again if he stayed. However, during the intervention from his parents, he was told he required treatment before he is able to see his boy and agreed to return to rehab.
