LOS ANGELES —

Rocker Marilyn Manson surrendered to police in Los Angeles last week in connection with a 2019 arrest warrant out of New Hampshire where he allegedly assaulted a videographer at a concert, authorities said.

Manson, whose legal name is Brian Hugh Warner, is charged with two misdemeanor counts of simple assault stemming from an alleged incident on Aug. 19, 2019 at the Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion in Gilford.

Gilford police Chief Anthony J. Bean Burpee said Thursday that Manson had turned himself into law enforcement in Los Angeles the week before. Manson was booked and released without bail pending a court appearance in New Hampshire.

Manson's attorney did not immediately respond to requests for comment Friday.

The victim, a videographer, was in the venue's stage pit area at the time of the alleged assault, Gilford police previously said. The misdemeanor charges can each result in a jail sentence of less than a year and a $2,000 fine if convicted.

Los Angeles Police Capt. Brent McGuyre confirmed Manson's surrender to The Associated Press. Manson turned himself in at the department's Hollywood station on July 2 and was processed on the warrant before being released.

"This is consistent with anybody who has a misdemeanor warrant that is not local," McGuyre said.

Manson also has faced abuse accusations — unrelated to the New Hampshire incident — in recent years. He has denied wrongdoing.

In February, actor Evan Rachel Wood publicly accused Manson, her ex-fiancé, of sexual and other physical abuse, alleging she was "manipulated into submission" during their relationship. Months later, "Game of Thrones" actor Esmé Bianco sued Manson in federal court in Los Angeles, alleging sexual, physical and emotional abuse.

The AP generally does not identify people who say they have been sexually assaulted, but Bianco and Wood have spoken publicly.

In 2018, Los Angeles County prosecutors declined to file charges against Manson over allegations of assault, battery and sexual assault dating to 2011, saying they were limited by statutes of limitations and a lack of corroboration. The accuser in that case was identified only as a social acquaintance of Manson.

A New Hampshire police department says it has issued an arrest warrant for rock artist Marilyn Manson.

In a Facebook post on Tuesday evening, the Gilford Police Department said it had issued an active arrest warrant for Brian Hugh Warner — Manson’s legal name. The department says Manson has been charged with misdemeanor simple assault stemming from a 2019 incident.

According to the department, the alleged assault occurred at Manson’s concert at the Bank of NH Pavilion on Aug. 18, 2019. The accuser is a videographer that was hired to film the concert. That videographer says they were assaulted while working in the stage pit area.

“Mr. Warner, his agent and legal counsel have been aware of the warrant for some time and no effort has been made by him to return to New Hampshire to answer the pending charges,” the department said in a Facebook post on Tuesday.

In a statement to NBC News, an attorney for Manson called the claim “ludicrous” and said Manson was committed to working with authorities.

The department said the simple assault charge is a “Class A misdemeanor.” If convicted, the department said Manson would face a maximum sentence of less than one year in prison and a fine of $2,000 or less.

The charge is the latest controversy for Manson, who was accused of abuse by two former girlfriends earlier this year.

In February, ex-fiance and actress Evan Rachel Wood claimed that Manson had “horrifically abused me for years” and “left me brainwashed into submission.” Following Wood’s accusations, Manson was dropped from his label, Loma Vista Recordings.

Later that month, actress Esme Bianco also accused Manson of abuse during their relationship in the ‘00s.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said in February that it is investigating Manson following accusations of domestic violence between 2009 and 2011.

The Gilford Police Department said Tuesday that the charges against Manson were not sexual in nature.
