Rapper Travis Scott Arrested in Paris for Attacking Hotel Security – World News

The French prosecutor’s office is now investigating the violent fight. The rapper group has not commented on what happened on Thursday. Scott, whose real name is Jacques Bermon Webster, is in Paris for the Olympics. As recently as Thursday night, he was seen in the audience of the semi-final basketball game between the USA and Serbia, along with businessman Michael Rubin and rapper Quavo, reports BBC.

This is not Scott’s first run-in with the law. He was already arrested in Miami this year for changing a private yacht. The prosecutor’s office there has dropped the charge of public drunkenness, but the rapper is still facing charges of trespassing on private property.

The performer, who has won ten Grammy awards, is one of the biggest stars in the current hip-hop scene. At his Astroworld festival in Houston, Texas, three years ago, ten people were injured in the crowd. Although he avoided criminal charges in this case, he is still involved in several civil disputes in which the organizers place the blame for the accident.
