Grammy-nominated rapper and singer Travis Scott was arrested on Friday, August 9, at Paris’ luxury Georges V hotel following a confrontation with a security guard, according to the French prosecutor’s office. The arrest occurred after police were summoned to separate Scott, 33, from a security guard during an altercation. Scott was reportedly involved in a dispute with his bodyguard when the incident escalated.
Details of the confrontation remain unclear, and the police are continuing their investigation. Scott was in Paris for the 2024 Olympics and attended the US rally against Serbia in the men’s basketball semifinal the previous night.
This arrest follows a prior incident in June 2024, where Scott faced charges of disorderly intoxication and trespassing following a disturbance on a yacht in Florida.
