Bam Margera ‘found safe’ after going missing and texting brother to say he’s ‘at peace’

The brother of Bam Margera has confirmed that the Jackass star has been 'found safe' after he had gone missing.

Jess Margera updated fans of Bam on Twitter as to what was happening after previously appealing for help in finding his brother.

He'd written: "If anyone in the LA area knows of bams current whereabouts or a hotel he might be at please call the LAPD immediately.

"I am trying to get them to ping his phone but as usual it’s a whole huge process and I don’t think we have that kind of time. If you guys could all retweet this that would be really cool of you. Thanks for your help."

Jess then said at around 11:30pm on 4 June that his brother had been 'found safe' after sending his family a text telling them he was 'at peace' and had taken 'enough pills to stop his heart'.

He thanked everyone who had offered information on Bam's possible whereabouts.

Earlier this month Margera had threatened to 'smoke crack until I die' if he didn't get the chance to see his son Phoenix.

He went on social media to address his ex-partner Nicole Boyd and deliver an expletive-filled rant demanding to see his son.

He said: "This is an official message to anybody that cares about me whatsoever.

"I haven't seen Phoenix in two f**king months and I am so f**ked fed up.I cry every day, I miss him so much and I know I have to wake up everyday knowing that I probably won't get to talk to him or see him.

"So yes Nicki drives me to f**king drink, so does my f**king mom and so does my f**king pep-talking dad who tells me nothing but I am a f**king fat loser piece of s**t drug addict."

"I am going to smoke crack with the bums down at the boardwalk until I am dead or unless you deliver me f**king Phoenix. So get to work Nicki or anybody that wants to help. I want Phoenix."
