Blueface, a rapper who rose to viral fame in 2018, was arrested in Las Vegas, Nevada on Tuesday in connection to a Nevada shooting in October.

He faced warrants for attempted murder and discharging a firearm at an occupied structure according to a tweet from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.

The rapper, whose full name is Jonathan Jamall Porter, was booked at the Clark County Detention Center and the police department provided a booking photo with confirmation that he had arrived there.

Blueface was arrested by around eight officers who were waiting for him in unmarked cars outside of Lo-Lo’s Chicken & Waffles.

A fan was recording a video of Blueface sitting outside the restaurant with his girlfriend the moment he got arrested by plain-clothed officers. The video showed him being suddenly grabbed roughly by one officer and then pushed into a wall as two others advanced behind.

Little more about the shooting he was allegedly involved in was provided besides a date, October 8, and a location of Hughes Center Drive.

He has been arrested on previous occasions for gun possession-related charges and other infractions. It does not appear that Blueface has been offered bail or bond for this arrest yet, and he and his label have yet to make a public statement on the matter.
