In the video, which was shared on DJ Akademiks’ popular blog account, a street is closed off to the public as a passerby seemingly films the surroundings. Helicopters can be heard flying overhead with a police officer ensuring that nobody enters the marked-off area. Another officer calls out on the loudspeaker, allegedly warning Youngboy that he must emerge from where he was hiding with his arms raised. If he failed to cooperate, they would be sending a dog to find him.
According to the arrest report, a K-9 unit was deployed to find the rapper. He was reportedly taken into custody and it’s unclear what he is being charged with.
Watch the video of his alleged arrest above. Hopefully, he gets out of jail soon so he can continue his prolific music career. Free Youngboy.
