Rapper Offset (Kiari Kendrell Cephus) had an encounter with police officers on Saturday. He was accused of brandishing weapons while driving through a Trump rally in Beverly Hills, California.
The live stream shows police officers pulling over Offset’s vehicle.
The rapper sits in the car with his hands on the steering wheel while the officers questioned him. One of the officers said they received a report that someone was waving a gun at passersby.
Offset refused to step out of his vehicle when the officers ordered him to. He identified himself to the officers as a member of the famous rap trio, Migos.
He argued with the officers, claiming that people were hitting his car with flags as he drove through and that they were following him because he was a celebrity.
Offset eventually complied when the officers opened the door of his vehicle and ordered him out. They handcuffed the rapper and briefly detained him. He was seen having a conversation with the officers before being released without charges.
Offset’s wife, Cardi B (Belcalis Almanzar), later arrived at the scene.

The statement confirmed that it was Cardi B’s cousin, Marcelo Almanzar, who was arrested and charged with carrying a concealed weapon and a loaded firearm.
Police said they responded after receiving a report that someone riding in a vehicle pointed a gun at a passerby, but the victim of the crime declined to press charges.
Almanzar was held on a $35,000 bond.
