Rapper Polo G arrested on multiple charges in Miami - WPLG Local 10

MIAMI – American rapper Polo G, whose real name is Taurus Bartlett, was arrested Saturday morning on multiple charges in Miami.

Jail records show that Bartlett, 22, faces charges of battery on a police officer, threatening a public servant, resisting an officer with violence, resisting an officer without violence and criminal mischief.

Cellphone video posted on Twitter by @raphousetv2 shows a woman, who is believed to be the rapper’s mother, yelling at police officers following her son’s arrest.

“All of this for two boys? Where are my sons?...please, video all of this s***!” the woman screams, pointing at a crowd of police vehicles that were parked at the scene. “For two f***ing kids with no f***ing guns!”

Miami police confirmed that they are investigating an incident involving the rapper and a male juvenile, but have not yet provided any other information.

According to the Miami Herald, Bartlett was pulled over early Saturday and ended up in a struggle on the ground with an officer, at which time he allegedly struck the officer multiple times as the officer was trying to handcuff him.

The artist’s mother and manager said he was stopped after an album release party.

She tweeted at the police department later in the morning, demanding to know where her sons are.

Bartlett is currently being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.

Polo G was born and raised in Chicago and released his debut album, “Die a Legend,” in 2019. He has had 10 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, including his 2021 single, “Rapstar,” which debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100.
