Rapper Travis Scott has been arrested at a Paris hotel after an altercation with a security guard, according to authorities.
The prosecutor’s office said police were called to the George V hotel early on Friday to arrest a man “nicknamed Travis Scott for violence against a security guard”.
The guard had intervened in an altercation between the 33-year-old and his own bodyguard, the statement added.
Scott, who has two children with ex-girlfriend Kylie Jenner, had been in the stands at the Olympic Games to watch the US men’s basketball team beat Serbia on Thursday evening.
Police are still investigating what happened in the scuffle at the five-star hotel, where rooms are about £1,800 per night in August.
