UPDATED 8/10, 4:55 p.m. ET: Authorities in Vermont have reportedly visited Ezra Miller’s farm seeking to locate a 25-year-old mother and her three young children.

As Rolling Stone reported, Vermont State Police attempted to serve an emergency care order against the mom demanding that her children be removed from her care citing safety concerns. The four were allegedly housed at Miller’s home, but the actor said the family moved out months ago. Law enforcement arrived at the property on Tuesday, and was there for at least an hour, according to local sources.

It’s not immediately clear if anyone was removed from the home during the visit, but the Vermont Department for Children and Families has declined to comment on the matter. Police had visited the property on at least two other occasions over the weekend. The young mother’s children are ages one, four, and five.

“The Court concludes that remaining in the home is contrary to the child’s welfare because: The child’s safety cannot be reasonably assured if the child remains in the custody of the child’s parent, guardian or custodian,” reads an order from the DCF, which requested two emergency care orders over the past week. “Miller, the owner of the residence, advised that Mother and the children had not been staying there for the past two monthsThis contradicts information [the DCF caseworker] presented to the Court in her affidavit as Mother was posting on social media in late July 2022 that [the case worker] recognized as the inside of Miller’s residence.”

The mother was posting consistently on Instagram until roughly mid-July, although the account has since been deleted.

Ezra Miller has been charged with felony burglary in Vermont, stemming from a complaint filed earlier this year. 

Vermont State Police located Miller on Sunday night and issued a citation to appear in court on Sept. 26 where they will be arraigned, perVariety. According to the police report, a burglary complaint was filed on May 1, which led to authorities gathering statements and observing surveillance footage before determining that there was probable cause to charge Miller. 

The complaint alleges several bottles of alcohol were stolen from a home in Stamford when no one was inside.   

This is the latest report in a string of incidents involving Miller, who was arrested twice in Hawaii within the span of a month earlier this year. The first occurred in late March when they were charged with disorderly conduct and harassment following altercations with a woman who was singing karaoke and a man who was throwing darts at a bar. The second arrest happened in April, with Miller accused of throwing a chair at a woman and leaving a half-inch cut on her forehead. Miller was charged with second-degree assault. 

The burglary charge took place in the same state as Miller’s farm, which has become the subject of discussion in light of a Rolling Stoneinvestigation detailing an alleged disturbing environment for the fellow occupants, which include a mother and her three children. A source told the publication firearms are left “unattended” and assault weapons “lying around” inside the residence.

A witness allegedly saw a 1-year-old child, who is one of the woman’s three kids, put a “loose bullet” in their mouth. The mother claims she has been living on Miller’s farm since April after meeting them in Hawaii, and sees their home as a “healing” space after dealing with alleged abuse. 

According to Variety, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav confirmed last week that, despite all the bad press surrounding Miller, The Flash is still slated to be released in theaters on June 23, 2023.
