Travis Scott was released from French police custody without a charge after his arrest at a Paris hotel following an altercation with a security guard, French prosecutors said Saturday (Aug. 10).

In a statement, the Paris prosecutor’s office said, “the police custody order for Travis Scott has been lifted and all proceedings (against him) were terminated because the incident was minor.”

A rep for Scott confirmed to Billboard that the rapper had been released with no charges.

Scott was arrested early Friday after police were called to the Georges V hotel to detain a man “nicknamed Travis Scott for violence against a security guard,” according to a statement from the Paris prosecutor’s office.

Officials said the hotel security guard had attempted to intervene in an altercation between Scott (born Jacques Bermon Webster II), 33, and his personal bodyguard in the early morning hours.

Scott was in Paris for the Olympics and was spotted at the U.S. men’s basketball game, where All-stars Steph Curry and LeBron James helped lead the veteran team to a thrilling come-from-behind win against Serbia to punch the team’s ticket to Saturday’s final against France.

Scott is one of the biggest stars in hip-hop. He has more than 100 songs that made the Billboard Hot 100 and released four singles that topped the chart: “Sicko Mode,” “Highest in the Room,” “The Scotts,” and “Franchise.”

He has two children with his former girlfriend, media personality and businesswoman Kylie Jenner.

In June, Scott was arrested in Miami Beach on misdemeanor charges of trespassing and public intoxication after officers said they had found him at the city’s marina shouting obscenities at people on a yacht and disobeyed their order to leave.
