Rapper YG is facing a felony robbery charge for allegedly yanking a man’s chain off his neck and taking off with the diamond-laced pendant.
YG was in a Vegas court Thursday (7/12) after a warrant was issued for his arrest and he turned himself in. He was hit with felony robbery and he was released after posting $20k bail.
According to Vegas police, the incident went down in late May at the Cosmopolitan around 4 AM, after a man approached YG and asked for a pic but was turned away by his crew. We’re told the guy retaliated by telling YG he’s not a real celeb. Casino’s surveillance footage then shows YG responding by yanking a chain off his neck.
The chain fell to the ground, and YG is then seen on video picking up the necklace pendant — valued somewhere between $3,000 and $9,000 — before taking off.
The alleged victim is also suing YG, claiming he had his goons beat him up before he snatched his jewelry. The guy wants at least $250k.
