Rapper YG has been charged with robbery just days before his performance at the 2020 Grammy Awards. Early Friday morning…
Early Friday morning at around 4 a.m., YG, 29, was served a search warrant “in the furtherance of an on-going criminal investigation” at his home in the Chatsworth neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, Deputy James Nagao said in a statement obtained by PEOPLE.
YG, né Keenon Jackson, was then taken into custody and transported to Men’s Central Jail where he was booked on the robbery charge, Nagao said.In a statement obtained by PEOPLE, YG’s attorney Joe Tacopina said the arrest completely caught the rapper “off guard because there is no truth to them.” “Rest assured, my client will be cleared of all charges, if they even survive past the arraignment,” Tacopina continued, adding that YG was arrested on suspicion of robbery based on an ongoing investigation.
“This has become even more outrageous… normally, in the American justice system, you get arrested after an investigation is completed.”
