Travis Scott, the renowned American rapper, found himself in hot water as he was detained in Miami under his real name, Jacques Bermon Webster. The incident occurred at Miami Beach Marina in the early hours of Thursday, where Scott was arrested on suspicion of disorderly intoxication and trespassing following an altercation on a yacht.
According to an arrest report from the Miami Beach Police Department, officers responded to reports of a disturbance on a yacht where Scott was seen shouting at individuals on board. The 33-year-old was reportedly exhibiting signs of intoxication, with officers detecting a strong smell of alcohol on his breath.
Despite being instructed to leave the dock, Scott allegedly became belligerent, yelling obscenities at those on the vessel. He initially complied with the officers’ orders to depart but later attempted to return to the yacht, disregarding their commands and causing a disturbance in the area.
Following his arrest, Scott admitted to consuming alcohol, attributing his behavior to the vibrant atmosphere of Miami. Known for his chart-topping hits and dynamic performances, Scott is a 10-time Grammy Award nominee and a prominent figure in the hip-hop industry.
The incident comes amidst ongoing legal battles for Scott, including civil cases related to the tragic deaths of 10 fans at his Astroworld festival in 2021. Despite the controversies, Scott continues to captivate audiences worldwide, with an upcoming European tour scheduled to kick off in the Netherlands later this month.
As fans await his return to the stage, Scott’s latest escapade in Miami serves as a reminder of the highs and lows that come with fame and fortune in the music industry.
