Lloyd Banks arrested for assault
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 11 January 2010
G-Uniter Lloyd Banks has been arrested on suspicion of assault in Canada after a run in with a promoter who had booked the rapper to DJ at his club.
According to AllHipHop.com, Banks arrived late for the gig at Ontario’s Club NV, and then played just one record before leaving the stage. When club promoter Chris Hines refused to pay him, a fight reportedly broke out.
Hines was admitted to hospital, while Banks and three of his associates were arrested. They reportedly now face charges of assault, robbery and forced confinement. And, if the one song DJ set is to believed, of taking the piss, presumably.
