On Sunday, during the 2024 Grammys, rapper Killer Mike found himself in a rather unexpected situation. Shortly after winning three awards in the pre-show telecast, he was escorted out of the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles in handcuffs, causing quite a stir.
Video footage captured by The Hollywood Reporter writer Chris Gardner and shared on Twitter showed the Atlanta rapper being detained by authorities as he walked out of the venue. In the video, an onlooker can be heard shouting, 'Free Mike.' The reason for his detainment remains unclear, and it is unknown if Killer Mike, whose real name is Michael Render, has been booked or charged. TMZ reported that the incident stemmed from an alleged physical confrontation. According to a police official, Killer Mike may be released later from the arena.
