Travis Scott yells ‘you’re gonna really lock me up?’ as cops handcuff him in bodycam footage of Miami yacht arrest
A BELLIGERENT and incredulous Travis Scott was clearly shocked as cops handcuffed him off a Miami yacht in June, police body camera footage reveals.
In the wild footage, exclusively obtained by The U.S. Sun, Travis is seen being hauled away while he shouts in disbelief following his arrest for disorderly intoxication and trespassing last month.
After being told to leave the boat, Travis appeared to return to the scene, telling officers, who seemed baffled that he had come back, that he had left a bag on the boat.
The Sicko Mode rapper argued with the Miami Beach Police officers and told them “You’re really gonna lock me up after I was trying to get my bag?” as they escorted him to a police car.
In another video, a police cruiser is seen pulling up to the scene, with the officer wearing the body camera exiting the car and walking up to the docked yacht.
The officer can be heard telling the occupants, “Everyone put their hands on their head.”
In a tense moment, just after the police had arrived at the yacht, officers asked if anyone had a firearm.
“Yo, buddy, do you have a firearm on you? You have a fire arm on you?” one cop asked.
Travis got off the boat and told the police that the “owners of the boat” told him to get off.
Travis complained to the officers that he had spent $20,000 to rent the boat and he felt “disrespected” when the “captain kicked the door open” after he was “in a room with his friend.”
The officers then interviewed the boat’s captain, who claimed that Travis was in a bedroom with a woman when the captain asked them to leave.
The boat’s captain also alleged that Travis had pushed him “many times,” and then told officers he didn’t want to press charges he “just wants him to leave.”
At another point in the video, yelled and argued with an officer telling him to sit down while another officer went through Travis’ security guard’s bag.
The security guard told the officers “I need my firearm,” and they responded: “You don’t listen very well, and I’m not going to give you a loaded firearm back,” while explaining to him he’ll have to go collect it at the police station.
TRAVIS’ THREATS
As Travis was escorted back to his car by police, who seemed prepared to let him go had he not returned to the boat, he began making apparent threats of “catching a fade,” which was noted in the police report as well.
“He going to catch a fade if he gets in the car with me!” Travis was heard saying to the officers, using a slang term for knocking someone out.
