Actor Nick Pasqual accused of stabbing Hollywood makeup artist Allie Shehorn at her Los Angeles home

LOS ANGELES (KABC)– An actor has been charged with attempted murder for allegedly stabbing his former girlfriend — a Hollywood makeup artist — multiple times in her Sunland home, prosecutors said Wednesday.

Nick Pasqual, 34, reportedly fled after the attack and was arrested at a U.S.-Mexico border checkpoint in Texas, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office.

Prosecutors said the victim, identified on a GoFundMe page as Hollywood makeup artist Allie Shehorn, recently took out a restraining order against Pasqual.

Pasqual is accused of stabbing Shehorn multiple times after breaking into her home around 4:30 a.m. last Thursday. She was hospitalized with serious injuries.

An arrest warrant was issued the day after the attack.

Pasqual is charged with one count each of attempted murder, first-degree residential burglary in the presence of a person, and injury to a spouse, common-law partner, fiancé, boyfriend, girlfriend or the parent of a child, according to the prosecutor's office.

Additionally, the suspect is accused of inflicting serious bodily injury on the victim in circumstances involving domestic violence, and it is also alleged that he personally used a knife during the crime.

If convicted of the charges, he could be sentenced to life in prison.

Pasqual appeared in the TV show “How I Met Your Mother” and the 2023 film “Rebel Moon,” according to his IMDB page.

“My thoughts and deepest condolences go out to the victim of this horrible incident,” prosecutor George Gascón said in a statement.

“This heinous incident is a stark reminder of the dangers of domestic violence,” Gascón also said. “We will ensure that the person responsible for this egregious act is held accountable for their actions.”

So far, the GoFundMe page for Shehorn has raised more than $90,000 to help pay for medical costs.
