BEVERLY HILLS — Charlotte rapper DaBaby was arrested in Beverly Hills Thursday after he allegedly carried a concealed weapon into a store, police said.
DaBaby, whose real name is Jonathan Kirk, was walking on Rodeo Drive with a group of men when security called police, claiming that someone from the group had a “weapon in his waistband” while in a store, according to the Beverly Hills Police Department.
The group was detained around 4:45 p.m. when they returned to their vehicle. After police investigated, the 29-year-old rapper, known for hits like “Suge” and “Rockstar,” was arrested on charges of carrying a concealed weapon and carrying a loaded firearm in a vehicle.
Police said the other men detained were released at the scene.
DaBaby was released on a $35,000 bond. He is scheduled to appear back in court on March 25.
The rapper has been nominated for six Grammys, including Record of the Year, and has a home in the Troutman area.
