Rapper Polo G, born Taurus Bartlett, was arrested in the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, on October 19, 2024, for felony possession of a concealed weapon. Police pulled over the “Rapstar” artist for speeding, and a subsequent search of his vehicle revealed a loaded firearm. Polo G was taken into custody and remains at the Van Nuys Jail, with charges of felony possession of a concealed weapon filed against him.
This marks the second time in 2024 that Polo G has faced legal issues related to gun possession. Earlier in the year, he was arrested in New York after hotel staff discovered a firearm in his room. Polo G was charged with criminal possession of a loaded weapon in that incident. His latest arrest, just days before the start of his “Hood Poet” tour, threatens the schedule, with the first show set for October 24 in Denver. Legal experts are now speculating whether this incident will cause delays or cancellations of tour dates.
