Elijah Allman, son of singer Cher and late musician Gregg Allman, was arrested Friday at St Paul's School in New Hampshire on multiple criminal charges. The 49-year-old faces four misdemeanor counts including simple assault, criminal trespass, and criminal threatening, plus a disorderly conduct violation. Concord police responded to reports of Allman causing a disturbance in the school's dining hall around 7 p.m.

This arrest follows a pattern of concerning behavior documented in court records. In December 2023, Cher was appointed temporary conservator of Allman, citing his inability to manage finances due to severe mental health and substance abuse issues. Court documents revealed Allman had been taken to a hospital in San Bernardino County earlier in June 2025 after authorities found drugs in his residence and responded to a disturbance call.

Allman was released on bail, though his connection to the elite prep school remains unclear. The incident adds to a turbulent history between Allman and his mother, who lost her conservatorship bid in January 2024 after Allman objected to her managing his finances. The arrest at the prestigious institution raises questions about Allman's ongoing struggles and the challenges facing families dealing with mental health and addiction issues in the public eye.
