#Socialites, get into this! rapper PlayBoi Carti found himself in an Atlanta jail following a verbal altercation that allegedly turned physical with his girlfriend.
According to the arrest affidavit, obtained by @tmz_tv, the woman who claims to have been dating the entertainer for 2 years and lived with him in July 2022, told cops that she tried to have a conversation with Playboi Carti about being pregnant but their convo about a paternity test led to a heated argument. The woman claims that things got so intense that it escalated into a physical attack. She told police that the rapper not only grabbed her by her throat and pushed her, but also allegedly held her neck until she could barely breathe, telling cops she thought she was going to die. She also told cops that a witness jumped in to try and break up the fight, and when she was able to escape Carti, she ran to her car. However, she claims that’s when he attacked her again!
The alleged victim went on to tell cops that Carti tried pulling her out of the car and allegedly tried to shut her mouth with his hands as she attempted to use the vehicle’s SOS feature to call the police. When cops eventually arrived at the scene, police reportedly saw the woman had visible injuries to her neck, chest, and back. As a result of the Dec 20. incident, Carti was arrested for felony aggravated assault.
As wild as that all sounds, his attorney, Brian Steel, tells TMZ… “Mr. Carter was falsely accused. Pursuant to my communications with the Fulton County District Attorney‘s office, this case will be dismissed without any prosecution or litigation.”
PlayBoi Carti has not yet publicly spoken out on these new allegations. In the meantime, here’s how social media has been reacting to the latest news:
