Rapper Travis Scott was arrested in Paris after an alleged fight involving a security guard and his own bodyguard at a luxury hotel. The incident occurred on August 9, 2024, at the George V hotel, where the security guard intervened to separate Scott from his bodyguard. The Paris prosecutor’s office has referred the case to the 1st district of the judicial police for further investigation. Scott, whose real name is Jacques Bermon Webster II, was seen at the men’s Olympic basketball semifinal before the incident. He was previously arrested in June in Miami Beach for disorderly intoxication, which his attorney described as a “misunderstanding.” Scott has not made any public statements about the Paris arrest, and his representative has not responded to requests for comments. The George V hotel is known for its upscale amenities and Michelin-starred restaurants, located near Paris’s Champs-Élysées and with views of the Eiffel Tower. The situation is still developing, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
