MIAMI BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) - Rapper Travis Scott was arrested for trespassing and disorderly intoxication charges in Miami Beach, according to his arrest report.
Pictures posted by TMZ captured Scott, whose real name is Jacques Bermon Webster II, as he boarded a private jet on Thursday.
According to Miami Beach Police, the incident that led to his arrest occurred at the Miami Beach Marina hours earlier, just before 12:45 a.m.
Officers were called to the marina regarding a disturbance call reporting people fighting on a luxury charter yacht. Once officers arrived, they saw Scott standing by the dock and yelling at the vessel’s occupants.
Scott was reportedly getting off a charter boat when the owner of the boat, who did not want to press any charges, requested him to leave following a dispute.
Officers noted that Scott initially complied by sitting down but repeatedly stood up, disregarding their commands. Authorities said officers detected a strong smell of alcohol on his breath.
An officer told Scott to leave the dock, warning he would be arrested if he returned. Scott left the property but continued to yell obscenities at the people on board the yacht.
The arrest report states, “The defendant then stated to officers, ‘If he gets in the vehicle he’s gonna catch a fade,’ which is slang for fighting,” before he got in a car and rode away.
But the incident didn’t end there. Officers said Scott returned to the marina five minutes later and tried to walk toward the boat, causing even more of a disturbance.
Scott was taken into custody at around 1:30 a.m., and transported to the Miami Beach Police Department. Detectives said he later admitted to consuming alcohol, stating, “It’s Miami,” according to the police report.
The 33-year-old musician, known for his chart-topping hits and dynamic performances, faces misdemeanor charges of trespassing on property after a warning and disorderly intoxication. He was held in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center with bonds set at $500 and $150. He was released shortly after.
Scott took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to say, “Lol.” He later posted about his upcoming tour.
Scott also took to Instagram to post an edited version of his mugshot that shows him wearing sunglasses and headphones with the phrase “Free the Rage II,” a nod to the first “Free the Rage” T-shirt he sold after he was arrested in Arkansas back in 2017 for inciting a riot at a concert.
He also put the phrase “It’s Miami” on a T-shirt, along with his altered mugshot flaunting a smile, and is selling the shirt on his website for $35. Proceeds from the t-shirt sales will go to his foundation, Cactus Jack, which helps children in underprivileged communities with education and creative resources.
On Thursday night, Scott promoted his new single, “Parking Lot” featuring artist Mustard, which was released Friday.
It remains unclear whether or not Scott will need to appear before a judge regarding this incident.
Scott, originally from Houston, Texas, rose to fame with his debut studio album “Rodeo” in 2015. He has since become a prominent figure in the music industry, known for his energetic live shows and successful albums, including “Astroworld,” which earned him critical acclaim and a massive fan base.
In his personal life, Scott shares two children with Kylie Jenner, the beauty mogul and the youngest sibling of the Kardashian-Jenner family.
