Paris police arrest Travis Scott: Here’s what we know
The rapper was arrested early Friday morning at the luxurious George V Hotel after an altercation broke out between him and his bodyguard.
Paris prosecutors confirmed that the police were called to the scene around 05:00 to intervene in a fight between the rapper and his security personnel.
According to authorities, the altercation escalated to the point where a hotel security guard had to step in to separate the two.
Unfortunately for Scott, this intervention led to his arrest for “violence against a security guard.”
While details about what triggered the scuffle remain unclear, reports indicate that Scott was heavily intoxicated at the time and refused to take a breathalyser test.
The arrest came just hours after videos surfaced online showing Scott clashing with Paris paparazzi who had been shadowing him during his visit to the French capital.
The rapper was in Paris for the 2024 Olympics and was spotted at the United States Men’s basketball semifinal match against Serbia the evening before the incident.
An investigation into the altercation is now underway, and further details are expected to emerge as the case develops.
