Rapper NBA YoungBoy is Currently Being Held in St. Martin Parish Jail
NBA YoungBoy is currently in St. Martin Parish.
YoungBoy isn't in town for a concert or a celebrity appearance. The superstar rapper, real name Kentrell Gaulden, has been booked into the St. Martin Parish jail after being taken into custody, according to WBRZ.
There are no charges listed for Gaulden but a rep with the St. Martin Parish Sheriff's Office told WAFB that the rapper was being held in their custody for the US Marshal's Service.
Records show NBA YoungBoy was taken into FBI custody back on March 22. Gaulden reportedly had an outstanding federal warrant and attempted to flee on foot after leading cops on a short pursuit when they attempted to stop a vehicle he was in.
Although Gaulden currently lives in Los Angeles the 21-year-old rapper is originally from Baton Rouge.
NBA YoungBoy has had a slew of legal issues leading up to his most recent arrest. You can see the complete story here via WBRZ.
