Offset Faces Felony Arrest Warrant For Knocking A Phone Out Of A Fan’s Hand

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that authorities in Sandy Springs, Ga. have issued a warrant for Offset’s arrest after video footage captured Offset smacking a phone out of a fan’s hand at a Target store. The 18-year-old fan, whose name is Junior Gibbons, filed a police report documenting the incident last Friday. After cops investigated, they reportedly deemed the act a felony since the phone is priced at $800, which is above the $500 limit to qualify as criminal damage to property in the state of Georgia.

Video obtained by Channel 2 Action News appears to show the rapper slap a cellphone out of a fan’s hands while the fan was recording. Target cash registers can be seen in the background. 

According to a police report obtained by AJC.com, officers were called to the Target at 5570 Roswell Road to investigate damage to property. The victim, an 18-year-old man, told police his $800 iPhone 8 was destroyed.
