A disturbance between rapper Travis Scott and a security guard at a Paris hotel led to Scott’s arrest, as reported by authorities.
Authorities from the prosecutor’s office mentioned that police were summoned to the George V hotel in the early hours of Friday to apprehend an individual identified as “Travis Scott,” involved in a physical altercation with a security guard.
The security guard had intervened in a scuffle between the 33-year-old artist and his own bodyguard, the statement clarified.
Scott, who shares two children with former partner Kylie Jenner, was present at the Olympic Games to witness the US men’s basketball team victory over Serbia on Thursday night.
The authorities are currently investigating the incident at the luxurious five-star hotel, where rooms cost approximately £1,800 per night in August.
