The son of “The Walking Dead” star Norman Reedus’ and former Victoria’s Secret model Helena Christensen was arrested for allegedly assaulting a woman in Chelsea early Saturday, police and sources said. 

Mingus Lucien Reedus allegedly punched the woman to wake her up before choking her and slamming her to the ground, sources told The Post.

The 25-year-old initially called 911 himself around 8:40 a.m. about a woman at a West 16th Street apartment who was taking pills and threatening suicide, police sources said.

When cops arrived, the woman, 33, claimed Reedus had assaulted her. He was taken into custody and she was brought to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition.

Reedus, who is listed in public records as living in the swanky Chelsea apartment, was charged with criminal obstruction of breathing and assault in the third degree, police said.

He was brought to the nearby 10th Precinct on West 20th Street and grinned as he was walked out a few hours later and placed into a waiting NYPD vehicle.

“Why did you call the police?” a reporter called out, to which Reedus responded, “I didn’t.” 

When the reporter asked him to “tell us what really happened,” the accused assaulter could be seen grinning and chuckling, before replying “no.”

The incident was “a misunderstanding,” Reedus then claimed to The Post before cops shut the car door. 

A woman who identified herself as Reedus’ girlfriend also claimed the incident was just a big “misunderstanding.”

“You got your story all wrong,” a man said leaving the 10th Precinct with her told The Post. 

It’s unclear if the woman is the same person Reedus allegedly assaulted.

It’s not the first time the nepobaby has been accused of assault.

Reedus copped a plea deal in March 2022 for allegedly punching a woman during the San Gennaro Festival in Little Italy months earlier. 

The victim in that case, a 24-year-old woman, was taken to the hospital with a cut under her left eye after she said Reedus struck her in the face during an argument. The two didn’t know each other, according to reports.

The ugly incident occurred just a week after Reedus made his debut on the cover of Vogue Hommes, a men’s version of the famed fashion mag. 

He pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct, though his indignant lawyer thought he should’ve had to take “less responsibility” in the assault case.

An assistant district attorney, however, said the victim wished Reedus would “take more accountability” than the plea bargain offered. 

Reedus, then 22, was sentenced with a conditional discharge, which required him to stay out of trouble for a year and participate in at least five counseling sessions. 

The troubled child of privilege, who reportedly began modeling in 2017 and signed with The Society Management, apparently shifted his interests to making music this summer. He has put out five songs on Spotify since May.
