Killer Mike, arrested at the Grammys after winning three awards

The Grammy ceremony left several highlights. However, one that generated controversy was when the moment in which rapper Killer Mike, whose given name is Michael Render, was arrested, was published on social networks. It was learned that the singer is accused of a minor assault that allegedly occurred before the event.

“The suspect was placed under arrest and was transported to LAPD Central Division. The suspect has been identified as 48-year-old Michael Render and booked for Misdemeanor Battery 243(A) PC, and is in the process of being released," released in a statement from the Los Angeles Police Department to which The Guardian had access.

In the videos published on social networks by the Hollywood Reporter, you can see the moment in which he was handcuffed and escorted away by the police at the Crypto Arena.

The situation occurred just after he celebrated on stage that he managed to win three awards: best rap album for his album Michael, best rap song and best rap performance for his song 'Scientists and Engineers.'

The Grammy Awards celebrated their 66th edition at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California. Trevor Noah was in charge of presenting the ceremony. Considered the most important awards in the music industry, they bring together hundreds of artists from various genres in a single night.
