Ezra Miller accused of stealing bottles of alcohol from empty home

Actor Ezra Miller has been charged over an alleged burglary in the US state of Vermont in the latest of a string of incidents involving the star.

Vermont State police said the charge came after an investigation into a complaint in the town of Stamford.

"On 05/01/2022 at approximately 1755 hours, the Vermont State Police was notified of a burglary complaint at a residence on County Road in the town of Stamford, Vermont," the report read.

"The initial findings indicated that several bottles of alcohol were taken from within the residence while the homeowners were not present.

"As a result of an investigation that included surveillance videos and statements, probable cause was found to charge Ezra M Miller with the offense of felony burglary into an unoccupied dwelling."

The Flash star was issued with a citation and is expected to appear in Vermont Superior Court in September.

Miller, who uses the pronouns they/them, was previously arrested twice in Hawaii on charges including second-degree assault and disorderly conduct at a karaoke bar.

The 29-year-old has also been accused of the abuse and grooming of a young girl.

Warner Bros has confirmed that the superhero blockbuster is still going ahead amid the ongoing controversies with its star, with DC franchise boss David Zaslav saying he was "very excited" for the movie to be released in June 2023.
