Travis Scott had a heated confrontation with police in Miami last month, and the incident was caught on body camera footage. The footage showed Travis being handcuffed and taken off a yacht by police after his arrest for disorderly intoxication and trespassing.
Travis argued with the officers as he was being escorted to a police car, expressing disbelief that he was being arrested after trying to retrieve his bag from the boat. Despite his protests, Travis was taken into custody and booked at the Miami-Dade County Jail.
The footage also captured a tense moment when police arrived at the scene and instructed everyone on the yacht to put their hands above their heads. Travis claimed that he had been asked to leave the boat by the owners, but the boat’s captain alleged that Travis had been involved in a physical altercation and refused to press charges.
During the incident, Travis made threats of “catching a fade,” which is slang for getting into a fight. This behavior is not new for Travis, as he has a history of facing criminal charges for inciting reckless behavior at his concerts. From encouraging fans to climb barricades to inciting riots, Travis has faced several legal issues in the past.
Despite his charges for disorderly intoxication being dismissed, Travis still faces a misdemeanor trespassing charge in Florida. He is set to appear in court on September 10 to address the remaining charge.
Travis, who is known for his rap albums and his relationship with Kylie Jenner, is no stranger to legal troubles. His recent arrest in Miami adds to the list of incidents that have tarnished his reputation over the years. As he navigates through this latest legal battle, it remains to be seen how Travis will move forward from this setback.
