American Rapper Travis Scott Arrested

Travis Scott has had his mugshot taken after being arrested for disorderly intoxication and trespassing in Miami.

Scott, whose real name is Jacques Bermon Webster, was booked into the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center around 4.35am Thursday, per court records. He posted a tweet saying ‘lol’ hours later.

The Houston-born rapper – who has two young children, Stormi and Aire, with Kylie Jenner – was arrested by police at the Miami Beach Marina at 12:44am.
The 33-year-old submitted a $650 bond – which includes $500 for the trespass charge, and $150 for disorderly intoxication. It’s unclear if he has yet been released.

The Astroworld rapper appeared bleary-eyed and expressionless in his mugshot, which has been shared by Miami Dade Corrections facility.

He appeared to respond on social media with a tweet simply reading ‘lol’ at 8.45am Thursday.

His arrest involved an altercation with the owner of a charter boat, according to WSVN. Scott ‘became irate screaming profanities, left and returned to disturb some more,’ according to the outlet.

The booking comes just days before his international Circus Maximus stadium tour, which kicks off June 28 in the Netherlands.

This is not the first time that Scott has had run-ins with the law. The rapper is facing a civil lawsuit after 10 people died during a crowd surge at his concert in 2021.

Scott previously revealed he was ‘devastated’ by the Astroworld disaster, which occurred on November 5, 2021 concert in Houston, Texas.

The musician told GQ he thinks about the disaster ‘all the time’ and has had ‘rough moments’ in the two years since as he worked on comeback album, Utopia.

Those killed, who ranged in age from 9 to 27, died from compression asphyxia, which an expert likened to being crushed by a car.

The star revealed his heartbreak at his attempt at putting Houston on the map as a city to rival New York and Los Angeles and inspire children had been ‘ruined’ – after previously saying he wanted to be a ‘hometown hero’ and not a ‘villain.’

In December 2021, speaking out about the November 5 tragedy Scott blamed his ‘in-ear’ person for not urging him to stop the show sooner, and claimed that he wasn’t aware of or responsible for the fatal stampede and crowd crush

Scott said that he is ‘1000 percent’ certain he did everything he could have to prevent the tragedy, and claims he didn’t hear the screams and cries for help as the crowd went out of control.

‘Things happen, you know, and it’s just been such a time, and I’m just trying to just really figure things out,’ he said when asked why he was breaking his silence.

‘My heart wasn’t there to be the villain—I was there to be a hometown hero.’
