Prosecutors confirmed to Billboard on Monday (Aug. 25) that they had charged “Old Town Road” rapper (born Montero Hill) with three counts of battery with injury on a police officer and one count of resisting executive officer over the alleged incident, which saw the star hospitalized.
In a statement last week, the Los Angeles Police Department said Lil Nas had “charged at officers and was taken into custody” after they found him wandering nude on Ventura Boulevard in the San Fernando Valley. He was later taken to a hospital to be treated for a “possible overdose.” A widely circulated video showed Lil Nas walking the streets in only white underwear and white cowboy boots.
An arraignment hearing for Lil Nas is scheduled for later on Monday. If eventually convicted of battery with injury on a police officer, the star could face up to three years in prison for each count. Reps for the the rapper did not immediately return a request for comment.
TMZ first published the video of Nas roaming Los Angeles in the buff. In the video clip, he tells the person filming, “Don’t be late to the party tonight,” while mimicking a series of dance moves. The incident came a day after he cleared his Instagram page, updated his name on the app to “Queen Madeline” and began repopulating it with a series of odd posts of himself in a series of costumes.
Monday’s charges came after Lil Nas sat in jail all weekend. On Friday, a spokersperson for the LAPD told Billboard that the artist “cannot be cited out,” and that “it is mandatory that he appears before a judge before he is released.”
