Police in Georgia have issued an arrest warrant for Migos rapper Offset for an incident where he allegedly knocked a phone off someone’s hand.
The incident happened last week at a Target in Sandy Springs, a suburb of Atlanta, when Offset damaged the phone of someone who claimed to be a fan, police said. The police report lists the iPhone’s value at $800.
Offset is accused of slapping the phone out of a teenager’s hand at Target, which seems to be confirmed by video from the phone in question.
Sandy Springs police is charging Offset — whose real name is Kiari Cephus — with criminal damage to property, a felony, said police Sgt. Sam Worsham.
Georgia law enforcement officers have issued a felony arrest warrant for rapper Offset, also known as Cardi B-minus, one-third of the Migos.
This isn’t the first run-in with the law for the “Walk It Talk It” mumbler. In 2015, all of the Migoses were arrested leaving a show in Statesboro, Ga., for possession of drugs and firearms and while detained, Offset was charged with fighting another inmate, the Statesboro Herald reports. In July, Cephus was pulled over for his automobile’s tinted windows and was subsequently arrested for gun possession.
While the phone incident admittedly seems bad, Offset was being boujee at Wednesday’s Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas with his spouse.
