Young Thug has been living up to his moniker lately. He was arrested Wednesday (July 15) morning, eight days after allegedly threatening to shoot a Perimeter Mall security guard in the face.
The 23-year-old rapper, whose birth name is Jeffery Lamar Williams, was arrested without incident around 6 a.m. at a residence in Sandy Springs, according to Jim Joyner, spokesman for the U.S. Marshals Southeast Regional Fugitive Task Force. The U.S. Marshals were helping Dunwoody police serve a warrant charging Williams with terroristic threats.
Dunwoody Police Department spokesman Officer Timothy Fecht said the charges were the product of a July 7 “dispute that Mr. Williams had with Perimeter Mall security.”
According to an arrest warrant, Williams was asked to leave the mall and was being escorted out when he “threatened to shoot (a security guard) in the face.”
Sandy Springs police, as well as federal agents, also executed search warrants Wednesday at his home.
My two-cents: Really mall cop???? And that’s why he works at the mall and not on the real police force.
