The erstwhile Borat was spotted at Angelini Osteria eatery in L.A. last night and seemed to be in no shape for sexy time.

Sacha Baron Cohen hobbled into the trendy Italian eatery on crutches, his lower leg set in a cast and wrapped in blue cloth, a source tells E! News. A restaurant manager cleared the way for the actor to get to his table in the packed restaurant.  

A call to his publicist on Thursday was not returned, so we have to wonder, what happened to the notoriously press-shy funnyman?

Was SBC attacked by an irate fashionista during filming for his new fashion mockumentary Bruno? Maybe he and the missus Isla Fischer had an argument and things got out of hand? (Everybody knows who wears the pants in that couple, obvs.) Or perhaps he simply stubbed his toe on a coffee table while chasing baby Olive around the house?  

We’re not sure, but we hope the injured star heals up quick and keeps bringin' the funny. High five!
