He’s going from stars to bars.

James Otis, who allegedly took a pickax to Donald Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, could be slapped with a felony and serve up to three years in prison.

The Los Angeles Police Department will recommend to the district attorney that Otis  be prosecuted with a felony rap, a law-enforcement source said told TMZ. The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, which will have to foot the bill for the star’s repairs, supports the charge.

Otis allegedly destroyed Trump’s star on Wednesday, and was arrested by LAPD at his home Thursday.
