Bruce Willis has spoken out after he was allegedly asked to leave a pharmacy in Los Angeles for not wearing a face mask.
According to Page Six, the actor was asked to leave a Rite Aid store on Monday, after he entered the pharmacy without a face covering.

The 65-year-old has since issued a statement to People magazine, admitting it was a judgement error.
The actor said: “It was an error in judgment. Be safe out there everyone and let’s continue to mask up.”
The news comes amid rising cases of Covid-19 in Los Angeles.
Just last month, the state of California surpassed 2million recorded cases since the start of the pandemic – which includes over 945k cases in LA alone.
