He reportedly got into a verbal “scuffle” with Christina before it turned physical at her home.

“During the incident, Cage punched two victims multiple times, causing injury. LAPD responded, and after meeting with all parties, a police report was completed,” law enforcement said.

Weston was released around two hours after his booking Wednesday morning on a $150,000 bond.

Following his arrest, Christina released a statement.

“On April 28th, 2024, around 5:30 p.m., I received urgent messages from friends of my son, Weston Cage, regarding his deteriorating mental state, urging me to come help,” she said.

“When I arrived to offer support and console him, he was already in the midst of a manic rage. Within minutes, I was brutally assaulted and sustained serious injuries,” Christina added. “Despite my desperate pleas to the responding police officers to detain him for a mental-health evaluation, the police officers refused my request.”

“As a mother, I am deeply saddened and concerned about Weston’s ongoing mental-health crisis,” she continued. “It is imperative that he receives the help he desperately needs.”

Previously, Christina said on the date of the incident, friends of her son had reached out to her “for assistance because they were experiencing Weston in a mental-health crisis.”

“I acted swiftly to ensure his safety,” she said. “Upon my arrival, I was met by my son who clearly was in a state of a mental-health breakdown, which in turn became a horrific experience. I have always supported helping my son with his mental-health struggles. I am doing all I can to get him the continued support he needs.”
