Rapper Tyga arrested for felony domestic violence in Los Angeles
CBSN
Tyga was arrested Tuesday morning on suspicion of felony domestic violence in Hollywood, authorities said. The 31-year-old rapper, whose real name is Michael Stevenson, turned himself in at the LAPD's Hollywood station, and his bail was set at $50,000, they said.
The Los Angeles Police Department said the alleged incident occurred Monday but they did not release any other details. The arrest comes one day after Tyga's ex-girlfriend, Camaryn Swanson, shared a series of photos of herself with a black eye on her Instagram account.
In one post, Swanson wrote: "I've been emotionally, mentally and physically abused and I'm not hiding it anymore." In subsequent posts, she disputed TMZ reports that said she showed up at the rapper's house at 3 a.m., acting belligerent and yelling.
Ashley White received her earliest combat action badge from the United States Army soon after the first lieutenant arrived in Afghanistan. The silver military award, recognizing soldiers who've been personally engaged by an attacker during conflict, was considered an achievement in and of itself as well as an affirming rite of passage for the newly deployed. White had earned it for using her own body to shield a group of civilian women and children from gunfire that broke out in the midst of her third mission in Kandahar province. All of them survived. She never mentioned the badge to anyone in her battalion.
