According to The Hollywood Reporter, the "Wild for the Night" star, real name Rakim Mayers, was detained by police officials in Stockholm, Sweden late on Tuesday night (July 02), following his performance at the capital's Smash Festival.
The 30-year-old reportedly became involved in a tense dispute with two men at Max restaurant in Stockholm on Sunday night, with video footage of the star picking a man up off the ground and hurling him down onto the road being shared online.
