Polo G Arrested In Miami During Traffic Stop




The huge projections follow a nasty run-in with law enforcement for Polo G. The Chicago rap star – born name Taurus Bartlett – had performed his hit single “Rapstar” on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon” Friday night, then attended his album release party in Miami. After leaving the party, he was pulled over around 12:30 a.m. for an unspecified “traffic infraction,” according to the police report. During the stop, a struggle ensued between Polo G and officer Brandon Carrero. According to another officer on the scene, the rapper was throwing elbows and struck Carrero multiple times.

According to the report, after Bartlett was in custody he shouted to the officer, “I will kill you, I swear I will use these fists to beat the sh*t out of you and knock your a** out.” (Miami Herald)

Stacia Mac Responds To Polo G’s Arrest


Polo G’s mother/manager Stacia Mac commented on the incident — in which G’s younger brother was also arrested — on social media. In an Instagram video she said the traffic stop was racially motivated (“They stopped them because they were driving while Black.”). She also posted on Twitter about the arrest.

“None of these charges would be possible if the POLICE did not make contact with my son Polo G!!! He was NOT the driver. He was a PASSENGER in a professionally licensed vehicle with security. He was moving smart and correctly. What more could he have done.”
