Jackass star Bam Margera no longer on the run after surrendering to cops
A Jackass star wanted for allegedly assaulting his brother has now surrendered to police.
Bam Margera, 43, is no longer on the run in Pennsylvania after cops put out a warrant for his arrest.
He has already been arraigned and his bail was set at $50,000. Mrgerea is due in court at the end of May.
Upon turning himself in, Margera said: "I just got out of the courthouse with my lawyers.
"Everything went great and the false accusations of what my brother says are not true and he will be sued for defamation as well as being evicted from castle bam sooner than later.

"The reason I lost my cool is because I read his phone saying he wants me back in California and he wants to find a way to 302 me. F*** him."
(bam_margera/Instagram)State police said they were called to the Chester County home in response to a reported domestic disturbance shortly before 11am on Sunday. Margera's brother, Jesse Margera, told police that Bam Margera had pounded on and kicked his locked bedroom door that morning, and punched him in the eye, nose and ear during a later confrontation in the kitchen, according to court documents.
Jesse Margera said he’d also found a threatening handwritten note signed “Bam," a police affidavit said.
Margera, who also starred in the MTV reality series “Viva La Bam,” fled the property on foot through dense woods before troopers got there, the affidavit said.
Bam Margera is charged with simple assault, harassment, and four counts of terroristic threats.
His attorney Michael van der Veen told TMZ: “He was arraigned and entered his plea of not guilty. He was released on an unsecured bail.
"Mr. Margera enjoys all of his constitutional rights, including the presumption of innocence. The wild rumours regarding his behaviour this week are absolutely false. He is in good health and in good spirits."
