Travis Scott was released from police custody on Saturday (August 10) following the rapper’s arrest at a Paris hotel after an altercation with a security guard. The Paris prosecutor’s office said in a statement, “the police custody order for Travis Scott has been lifted and all proceedings (against him) were terminated because the incident was minor.” According to the initial police report, Scott was arrested early Friday after authorities were called to the Georges V hotel to detain a man “nicknamed Travis Scott for violence against a security guard.”
A representative for Scott has confirmed that he had been released with no charges. Sources close to the rapper shared that there are no plans for Scott to be charged in the future, and that no injuries were suffered by any party involved in the incident, including the security guard. Scott was apparently swarmed by paparazzi while in Paris, and he was supposedly angry at security for not properly protecting him from the crowds. (Billboard)
