Fetty Wap was arrested yesterday on federal drug charges, The Associated Press reports. The arrest reportedly occurred at Queens, New York’s Citi Field, where Fetty Wap was scheduled to perform as part of Rolling Loud New York. As Rolling Stone notes, festival attendees tweeted that Fetty Wap did not take the stage last night. The details of the charges have not yet been revealed.

Pitchfork has reached out to representatives for Fetty Wap and Rolling Loud for comment and more information.

Fetty Wap has faced several legal issues in recent years, including a 2019 arrest in Nevada for allegedly assaulting three employees at a Las Vegas hotel. The misdemeanor battery charges were dismissed in 2020. Later in 2020, Fetty Wap was sued by a woman who claimed that the rapper strangled her and punched her during an incident inside of his Los Angeles home in June 2019. Fetty Wap was also charged with driving under the influence in November 2017.
