The Las Vegas Metro Police Department on Tuesday (Nov. 15) arrested Belugas rapper, born Jonathan Porter, on a warrant for attempted murder with a deadly weapon and discharging a firearm into an occupied building. a statement of the LVMPD states that the charges stem from a shooting on 8 October.
Pitchfork has reached out to the Las Vegas Metro Police Department and representatives for Blueface for comment.
In February, Blueface was arrested for gun possession in California after a traffic stop. In 2021, he was wanted by the police after he was caught on camera attacking a bouncer at a California club who allegedly denied him entry without showing his ID.
In 2019, Blueface was charged with a single felony count of carrying a loaded handgun (on his person or in a vehicle) without a registration. The charge was eventually dropped in October of that year.
