Travis Scott Released from Police Custody in Paris

In a recent incident, renowned music artist Travis Scott has been released from police custody after an altercation at a prestigious hotel in Paris. Following his arrest, it was confirmed that he would not face any charges, as the Paris prosecutor’s office stated, “the police custody order for Travis Scott has been lifted and all proceedings (against him) were terminated because the incident was minor.”

The rapper was apprehended early on Friday morning after law enforcement responded to a call at the Georges V hotel. Reports indicated that a man, identified by the nickname Travis Scott, was involved in a violent confrontation with a security guard. The hotel staff had intervened in the dispute between the artist and his bodyguard, leading to the police’s involvement.

During his stay in Paris, Scott was attending the 2024 Olympics and had been spotted enjoying the thrilling men’s basketball semifinal match where the United States triumphed over Serbia on Thursday night.

Travis Scott, born Jacques Webster, is celebrated as one of the biggest names in the hip-hop industry. He boasts an impressive catalog of over 100 songs that have graced the Billboard Hot 100, including four chart-toppers: Sicko Mode, Highest in the Room, The Scotts, and Franchise. His influence in the music scene is undeniable.

On a personal note, Scott is the proud father of two children with his former girlfriend, the well-known media personality and business mogul Kylie Jenner.

This isn’t the first time Travis Scott has found himself in legal trouble. Just a few months prior, in June, he was arrested in Miami Beach on misdemeanor charges of trespassing and public intoxication. Officers reported that he was found at the city’s marina, reportedly shouting obscenities at patrons on a yacht and ignoring their requests to leave the area.
