JayDaYoungan, whose real name is Javorius Scott, was taken into police custody after he was discovered hiding in an attic in a Texas home, the Harris County Precinct 4 constable deputies that made the arrest, noted.
The officer posted a photo of Youngan in handcuffs and shared a news update on Instagram. According to the post, Scott was served a federal warrant for “family domestic abuse,” which officers executed on Thursday (Feb 6).
The Louisiana rapper is not only being accused of hitting a pregnant woman but was also reportedly found in possession of marijuana, oxycodone, promethazine, and multiple firearms, KHOU reported. He was arrested and charged for the assault and possession of a controlled substance.
The 21-year-old rapper is currently be held with a bond set at $20,000. According to Harris County Precinct 4, constables also found $24,000 in the home where they discovered Scott hiding in the attic. The cash was seized along with the firearms and the drugs.
