Bruce Willis admits to 'error in judgment' after not wearing mask inside Los Angeles Rite Aid

Bruce Willis is speaking out after he was asked to leave a Rite Aid in Los Angeles for not wearing a mask.

A source told Fox News that the 65-year-old "Die Hard" actor entered the pharmacy around 3 p.m. Tuesday and immediately made other patrons uncomfortable because he was not covering his face in the store.

Rite Aid has required customers to use face coverings in all store locations since July 21 in light of the coronavirus pandemic. When an employee asked Willis to cover his face, the sources said he seemed "disgruntled" and opted instead to leave without buying anything.

In a statement to People, Willis admitted that he should have masked up before going into the Rite Aid.

In the photo, Willis wears a black hat, black jacket, striped T-shirt and jeans. He also has a scarf around his neck, but it’s unclear if that could have acted as a face covering if he pulled it up.

California remains the state hit hardest by the coronavirus, with 2,804,663 cases as of Wednesday morning.

The novel coronavirus has infected more than 91,669,273 people across 191 countries and territories, resulting in at least 1,963,934 deaths. In the U.S., all 50 states plus the District of Columbia have reported confirmed cases of COVID-19, tallying more than 22,846,810 illnesses and at least 380,796 deaths.

Willis’ appearance at a Los Angeles store means he’s back in the city after opting to spend the onset of the quarantine with his ex-wife Demi Moore and their daughters Rumer, 32, Scout, 29, and Tallulah, 26 at their home in Idaho.

Meanwhile, Willis’ wife, Emma Heming Willis, and their two young children Mabel, 8,...

That should have been on video. LOL.

They were heavy drinkers for a while. When my sister-in-law came to visit she bought a case of beer that my brother-in-law likes that is not available where they live. She wanted me to send it to them, but the shipping was going to cast around $50. So instead I took the case of beer to my neighbors because I though that they could make good use of it. When he answered the door and offered it to him, he started yelling at me in what seemed to me to be a funny Die Hard type dialogue claiming that no one in his household drank alcoholic beverages of any kind. I was completely baffled, but thought that this was one of his usual attempts at humor. I didn't realize that he had recently had some difficulty with the authorities over a Driving Under the Influence situation.

To continue what I thought was a joke, I replied, “That's alright I'll just take it over to the alcoholics that live on the other side of us.” In my line of work I have heard very creative strings of obscenities on many occasions, but I do not think that even Bruce Willis would have been capable of delivering such a convincing and animated performance as what I heard next. At first I started laughing but as he lunged at me with obvious and genuine rage threatening to rip me to pieces only in much more graphic terms... the beer and I quickly departed. I took it to the alcoholics that lived on the other side of us and they seemed genuinely touched by the gesture of kindness.

I had an appointment at my bank. These days you only get inside by appointment

I got to the bank door and said, “Oh man. I forgot my stupid mask.”

I want to the car and got my mask. When I got to the bank door I said,”Darn. I left the paperwork in the car.”

I retrieved the paperwork. When I got to the bank door I said, “Whoops. I better put my gun in the car.”

Fourth trip I made it inside.
