AceShowbiz - The rapper Sidney Royel Selby III, known professionally as Desiigner, was arrested in South Carolina following an incident of domestic violence that resulted in a misdemeanor charge.
According to official police records, Desiigner, 28, was taken into custody on March 23 in Horry County. He was later released after posting a $1,500 bond. The incident reportedly took place on March 2 at his residence near Conway, when officers responded to a domestic disturbance call.
The police report details that a woman involved said Desiigner arrived home upset and threw his keys onto the counter. When she attempted to retrieve them, he allegedly grabbed the keys from her pocket, which caused her clothing to tear. The situation escalated when Desiigner is said to have thrown the woman to the ground near the front door of the residence.
The woman told authorities she sustained minor scratch marks on her arm and lower back. She also mentioned having video footage of the altercation, though she was unable to access it at the time officers arrived. Desiigner had already left the property before police showed up.
The case was subsequently reviewed by a judge, who approved formal charges of third-degree domestic violence against Desiigner. This recent legal trouble adds to previous incidents involving the artist, including a 2023 charge related to inappropriate conduct on a flight, for which he publicly expressed shame and took responsibility.
As of now, Desiigner has not issued any public statements regarding this latest arrest or the allegations surrounding it.
