The arrest followed reports of the rapper dancing on a concrete barrier in active traffic. Police court documents state that officers found the 27-year-old, whose legal name is Enoch Tolbert, running across travel lanes and forcing cars to slow down.
Upon their arrival, he allegedly jumped onto the concrete median barrier and began dancing. Tolbert confirmed to police that he and his team had pulled over on I-75 specifically to shoot a video.
