NEW YORK – Rapper Fetty Wap was arrested at Citi Field Thursday afternoon on federal drug charges and will be arraigned Friday morning, a law enforcement source said.
The indictment against the rapper, whose real name is William Junior Maxwell II, is still under seal, the source said.
The 30-year-old Paterson native has had a troubled life. His brother was killed in his hometown this time last year, and his 4-year-old daughter died earlier this summer.
Maxwell was previously arrested on assault charges in Las Vegas in 2019 and DUI charges in New York in 2017.
He released his most recent project, “The Butterfly Effect,” last week.
This is a developing story.
