How I Met Your Mother actor Nick Pasqual, 34, is reportedly in a remote Texas jail after allegedly stabbing his ex-girlfriend Allie Shehorn, 35, more than 20 times and attempting to flee to Mexico.
The Hollywood star is reportedly awaiting extradition back to California where he faces charges of attempted murder, burglary and domestic violence.
These charges are linked to the brutal attack on Shehorn in her Los Angeles home last month, allegedly carried out by Pasqual on May 23.

According to a press release from the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office, Pasqual faces one count each of attempted murder, first-degree residential burglary with person present, and injuring a spouse, cohabitant, fiance, boyfriend, girlfriend or child’s parent.
If convicted, he could face a life sentence. LA District Attorney George Gascon has pledged to bring Pasqual back to California from Texas, although MailOnline reports that there is currently “no extradition date in sight”.

Renowned makeup artist Allie, who was tragically stabbed over 20 times, had a decorated career working on film sets of popular movies such as Mean Girls, Rebel Moon and Babylon. She brought her skills to the forefront not only as a makeup SPFX artist but also a hairstylist.
She initially crossed paths with her ex-boyfriend Nick on the set of Rebel Moon, as reported by the Los Angeles Times. The 35-year-old artist “had recently filed a restraining order against Pasqual,” as per an official press statement.
