Houston rapper Travis Scott found himself in hot water early after being arrested in Miami. According to CNN, Scott was detained at Miami-Dade’s Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.
The incident leading to his arrest unfolded at the Miami Beach Marina, where Scott was reportedly causing a disturbance on a charter boat.
The Miami Beach Police Department confirmed that Scott was taken into custody at 1:17 a.m. for disorderly intoxication and trespassing.
Authorities stated that he was intoxicated, causing a ruckus, and had been asked to leave multiple times by the boat’s owner and crew. Despite these requests, Travis Scott refused to vacate the premises.
Upon being confronted by the boat owner as he was disembarking, Scott allegedly became irate, screaming profanities.
