Travis Scott Arrested in Miami Beach for Trespassing and Disorderly Conduct on a Yacht

In the early hours of Thursday, Travis Scott, the rapper also known as Jacques Bermon Webster, found himself embroiled in legal trouble in Miami Beach.

The 33-year-old artist faced charges of disorderly intoxication and trespassing following an altercation at the Miami Beach Marina, drawing significant media attention.

The incident started around 1:45 a.m. when Miami Beach police were called to the marina because people were fighting on a yacht. When the officers arrived, they saw Scott yelling at the people on the yacht from the dock, which created a tense situation.

Although Scott first obeyed the police by sitting down, he soon started walking away and kept shouting insults at the yacht’s occupants.

This initial confrontation was just the beginning. Scott’s compliance was short-lived, and he returned to the dock five minutes later, attempting to re-approach the yacht.

His increasingly erratic behavior not only disturbed the peace of nearby residents and marina occupants but also prompted a more aggressive police response.

Officers detected a strong smell of alcohol on his breath, and Scott admitted to drinking, nonchalantly remarking, “It’s Miami.” His repeated disregard for police commands ultimately led to his arrest at 1:17 a.m., marking a significant turning point in the night’s events.

Following his arrest, Scott was taken to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center, where he was held before being released on a $650 bond by 9:30 a.m. on Thursday.

Demonstrating his characteristic nonchalance, Scott humorously edited his mugshot to add sunglasses and headphones, sharing it on his Instagram story and tweeting “Lol” shortly after his release. This reaction highlights his attempt to downplay the seriousness of the situation while maintaining his public image.

He is also known for the tragic Astroworld Festival in 2021, where a crowd surge resulted in ten deaths. While he avoided criminal charges for the incident, the ongoing civil litigation continues to cast a shadow over his career.

Despite his recent legal and personal troubles, Scott is preparing for his European tour, Circus Maximus, which starts on June 28 in the Netherlands.

He will perform in major cities like London and Manchester, showing that he is still popular and determined to keep going despite challenges. This tour is very important for Scott as he tries to focus on his music and reconnect with his fans around the world.
