Shy Glizzy Will Not Face Charges For Alleged Gun Incident With Ex-Girlfriend

July 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Shy Glizzy found himself in a lot of hot legal water following a May arrest in West Hollywood following a dispute with his ex-girlfriend. Moreover, model Maya Colon pressed charges after he allegedly threatened her with a gun, she claims, and that this followed various threats to her family, career, and subsequent relationships after their April split. What’s more is that she claimed the rapper followed her in his car and, at a red light, brandished a firearm and hit it on her windshield. His arrest resulted in a felony charge of threats following his release on bond for $50,000.

However, now TMZ reports indicate that the court cleared Shy Glizzy of all charges on Friday (July 14). According to the outlet, authorities did not find sufficient evidence to support Colon’s claims, which eventually led to them dropping the case. Not only that, but apparently officials committed an “inadmissible search and seizure” when investigating the case, which can hold very serious consequences. That’s a violation of the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, and it implies a few possible actions. One is a search without a warrant, search with no probable cause, or an unjustified extension of a legal search and seizure.

Regardless, the D.C. MC’s ex-girlfriend still has a temporary restraining order against him. Furthermore, it details that Shy Glizzy must stay at least 100 yards away from her. In addition, he can’t contact her and can’t post any explicit photos or videos of her online (assumedly “explicit” refers to pictures and videos explicitly about her, since not being able to post explicit content sounds like a given). Still, apparently Colon still seeks a permanent restraining order in court, from what reports indicate, despite the dropped charges.

Meanwhile, the 30-year-old denied any and all claims on his Instagram Story back in May when this all blew up. “The accusations made against me are completely false,” he expressed. “I would never in my life pull a weapon or harm a female in any way so stop with the BS allegations! What is wrong with ppl?” For more news and the latest updates on Shy Glizzy, stick around on HNHH.

Shy Glizzy Allegedly Sent Threats to Ex-GF Over Breakup Before Hollywood Arrest

May 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Another day, another update on Shy Glizzy’s alleged threatening of his ex-girlfriend. Glizzy used to date model Amaya Colon who is requesting a restraining order against the rapper.

According to TMZ, legal docs highlight Glizzy threatening Colon’s life and her mother’s life. In April, he sent a text that read, “Ima f*** ya life up.” The threats stem from her breaking up with the rapper in April.

Colon states Glizzy has anger issues and began dating in December. She also states Glizzy was following her around the city, banged on her window at a red light with a gun. She attempted to flee but Glizzy tried to run her off the road and caused damage to her car.

This past Saturday, the altercation between Glizzy, whose real name is Marquis King, and the woman spilled into the streets about 9 am but left the scene soon after. King was arrested by 6 pm Saturday evening after West Hollywood Sheriffs were alerted. Glizzy was arrested.

Authorities claim that the incident occurred after a verbal altercation with his alleged girlfriend. Law enforcement sources allege that the situation escalated rapidly, pushing the rapper to pull a gun and threaten the woman.

Glizzy was charged with making criminal threats, but police say that a weapon was not recovered. King was released on a $50,000 bond.

Shy Glizzy released a statement after allegedly pulling a gun on his girlfriend in Hollywood.

“The accusations made against me are completely false,” Glizzy wrote on his Instagram Story. “I would never in my life pull a weapon out of harm a female in any way so stop with the bs allegations! What is wrong with ppl?”

Shy Glizzy’s Ex-Girlfriend Has Reportedly Requested A Restraining Order After Alleged Death Threats

May 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The troubling allegations against Shy Glizzy are mounting. On Tuesday, May 16, TMZ reported that the Washington, DC rapper had been arrested last Saturday, May 13, “following a verbal altercation with his on-again, off-again girlfriend.”

The outlet noted that police claimed it “escalated to the point where Shy grabbed a firearm and made a threat.” After West Hollywood Sheriff’s Deputies finally located Glizzy later that evening, he was arrested on a felony charge of making criminal threats.

“Records show he was released after about 4 hours behind bars on a $50,000 bond,” TMZ‘s report stated. “Our sources say police did not find a gun on Shy when he was arrested … and he denied ever threatening the girlfriend, who we’re told he’s been dating off and on for four months.”

On Wednesday, May 17, TMZ gave an update, reporting that Amaya Colon, the aforementioned ex-girlfriend, has filed a request for a restraining order against Glizzy because “he’s threatening to kill her, her family, her friends, and any man she dates in the future.” A temporary restraining order has been granted.

TMZ obtained the documents and relayed more concerning details:

“Amaya claims Shy has repeatedly told her he will kill her and her mother. She says he’s been making the threats ever since she broke up with him in April … and she says he sent her a text message that said, ‘Ima f*** ya life up.’

Amaya claims she started dating Shy in December but broke up with him on April 28 because she says he has ‘anger issues. She says Shy did not take the breakup well and things reached a head on May 13, when he was arrested for allegedly threatening her.”

Glizzy also allegedly texted Colon’s unnamed best friend, wriring, “Imma get her a** beat.”

Shy Glizzy Was Reportedly Arrested On Criminal Threat Charges After An Incident With His Girlfriend

May 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Shy Glizzy, née Marquis Amonte King, was arrested on Saturday, May 13, after pulling a gun on his girlfriend. According to TMZ, the Lil Uzi Vert collaborator allegedly got in a fight with his girlfriend, which led to him brandishing the weapon and threatening her.

The “How I’m Coming” rapper reportedly fled after the dispute, which happened at 9 A.M., but was finally tracked down by police and arrested hours later, at 6 P.M. He spent four hours behind bars and was hit with a felony charge of making criminal threats. He was later released on a $50,000 bond. Sources told TMZ that cops didn’t find a gun on him when he was arrested and that he denied making threats.

Glizzy is signed to the label 300 Entertainment, and has his own imprint under them called Glizzy Gang 300 Atlantic. After rappers Young Thug and Gunna were arrested for gang activity connected to their label YSL, 300 Entertainment launched a petition on Change.org calling for the protection of Black art and laws to codify rappers’ freedom of expression.

300 Entertainment was also sued by Megan Thee Stallion after they claimed that Something For Thee Hotties was a mixtape and not an album and therefore didn’t fulfill their contract. The label then countersued.

Some artists covered here are Warner Music artists. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Shy Glizzy Detained By Police At Gunpoint After Allegedly Pulling Gun On GF: Video

May 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It’s been relatively quiet on Shy Glizzy’s front since the arrival of his Flowers album earlier this year. That saw the lyricist enjoying a moment in the spotlight in February. Fans were appreciative of both his various solo efforts on the tracklist, as well as collaborations with names like Chris Brown and NBA YoungBoy. Today (May 15), unfortunately, his name is connected with far less flattering headlines. Among them are allegations of pulling a gun on his girlfriend during an argument and threatening to harm her.

According to TMZ, Glizzy was arrested this past Saturday following a verbal altercation with the woman. Their situation is said to be on-again-off-again in nature but apparently reached a new low when he brought a firearm into their latest feud. The incident took place on a public street around 9 AM, and afterward, the 30-year-old “took off.” Sources have told the outlet that the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Deputies became involved when a criminal report was filed. Glizzy was tracked down around 6 PM, and promptly arrested alongside his manager.

Glizzy and His Manager Swarmed by Police in Sherman Oaks

A video of the Washington, D.C. native’s detainment has been circulating online, showing a group of officers surrounding Glizzy and his manager at gunpoint while yelling out orders at them. Authorities didn’t find a gun on the accused, and he denied having threatened the girlfriend, who’s allegedly only been in his life for four months now. Regardless, Shy was booked on a felony charge of making criminal threats.

After approximately four hours behind bars, the “White Girl” rapper was freed on a $50,000 bond. At this time, the WeHo Sheriff’s office continues to investigate. TMZ reached out to the embattled artist and his team for further clarification on the situation but didn’t hear back in time for publication. Are you surprised by the news of Shy Glizzy’s detainment?
