A tough stretch for embattled boxer Ryan Garcia took another turn Thursday after prosecutors in California announced he was charged with vandalizing a hotel in Beverly Hills. 

Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón said in a press release this week that Garcia has been charged with one misdemeanor count of vandalism of $400 or more in damage or destruction of property.

"While we are grateful no injuries were reported in this incident, reckless behavior that damages property shows a blatant and unacceptable disregard for the safety and peace of our community," Gascón said. "Our office will work to ensure the responsible individual is held accountable."

At the time of his arrest last month, Garcia’s lawyer, Darin Chavez, told ESPN the incident happened during a difficult time for the 25-year-old boxer. 

"Ryan has been open about his struggles with mental health over the years, and at this time he is dealing with an immense emotional burden," Chavez said, adding that Garcia recently lost his mother.
