Tekashi 6ix9ine was arrested in the Dominican Republic on Wednesday on domestic violence charges.
The rapper remains behind bars and details of the incident have not been leaked to the public yet.
6ix9ine has had a few scandals since moving to the island.
Late last year, surveillance footage was released of 6ix9ine and two other men running into a building and fleeing the scene moments later. One of the victims needed surgery after suffering a dislocated jaw. The producers were part of Dominican artist Diamond La Mafia’s team.

“He caught both of my producers,” he said. I had just left the studio, and Yailin had just left. He was making her believe he was in Miami, and suddenly, he appeared at the studio in La Vega and attacked my producers, who were innocent and unknown to him. 6ix9ine came to the studio, jealous over Yailin. I’m here with my wife, and he attacked all my producers. I had left the studio just five minutes ago… the bravest one came with 70 people, why didn’t he come alone?”
The rapper tried to flee the country but he was stopped by authorities. He is not allowed to leave the country until his legal issues have been resolved.
