Elijah Blue Allman, the son of Cher and the late Gregg Allman, was arrested twice in New Hampshire within the span of a single week, drawing renewed public attention to his personal struggles. Authorities were first called to St. Paul’s School in Concord on February 27, 2026, after reports of an alleged disturbance involving an unwanted guest. Police charged Allman with simple assault, criminal trespass, criminal threatening, and disorderly conduct. He was later released on personal recognizance pending a future court appearance. Just days later, on March 1, he was taken into custody again in Windham on a felony burglary charge after allegedly entering a private residence. According to reports, a homeowner contacted police, and Allman was arrested without incident. Officials also cited property damage inside the home.
These developments follow a series of highly publicized family and legal matters in recent years. In 2023, Cher filed for conservatorship over her son, citing concerns about his well-being and financial management. A judge ultimately denied her temporary requests, and the case was later resolved privately in 2024. Allman has previously stated he was sober and receiving treatment, and a court had acknowledged he was managing his affairs at that time. However, his recent arrests come after a 2025 hospitalization related to an overdose scare and a divorce filing from his wife of 13 years. As the legal process continues, questions remain about whether these incidents represent isolated events or deeper challenges still unfolding.
