US rapper ASAP Rocky was arrested by police officers at LAX International Airport, on Wednesday, TMZ reports.
What was ASAP Rocky arrested for?
The incident took place in the morning, right after Rihanna‘s soon-to-be baby daddy landed at the Los Angeles airport on a private jet from Barbados.
According to eyewitnesses, the F****ing Problems star was greeted by cops at the international arrivals terminal and whisked away in handcuffs.
From what we understand, the arrest is in connection with a shooting that took place in November 2021 near Vista Del Mar and Selma Avenue. As reported by NBC News, Rocky, real name Rakim Mayers, was identified by the victim as one of three suspects who shot at him at approximately 22:20 that evening.
The victim recalled hearing three or four gunshots ring off, one of which grazed his left hand.
Rocky’s representatives have yet to issue a statement on the arrest and, at the time this article was published, the rapper had been in police custody.
Rocky has been in Barbados in the past week with Rihanna, who is expected to give birth to her first child soon. The couple have since rubbished the cheating rumours that recently surfaced, appearing in pictures in the Caribbean island.
This is a developing story.
