Travis Scott has been arrested in Miami following an alleged incident at a marina.
The rapper, 33, was booked at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami-Dade County at 4:35 a.m. Thursday on charges of trespassing and disorderly intoxication, online records showed. His mugshot was also released.
The Miami Beach Police Department confirmed to USA TODAY that Scott was taken into custody on Thursday after an incident at the Miami Beach Marina. Officers responded to a disturbance on one of the yachts, where people were fighting on the vessel, according to the arrest affidavit.
Officers say they observed Scott, whose real name is Jacques Bermon Webster, standing by the dock and yelling at the occupants of the vessel. When officers made contact with the rapper, he "began continuously standing back up," disregarding commands to sit down, and his breath smelled strongly of alcohol, according to police.
Police say they told Scott to leave, and although he initially did so, he soon returned, and officers observed him walking back toward the vessel. After he began yelling and "becoming erratic disturbing the peace of the occupants of the marina and nearby residential buildings," he was taken into custody, the police report said.

USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for Scott for comment. As news of his arrest emerged, the "Sicko Mode" rapper simply posted on X, "Lol."
Scott is scheduled to perform in the Netherlands on June 28 and June 30 as part of his Circus Maximus Tour.
The arrest comes almost three years after Scott faced scrutiny over a crowd surge at his Astroworld music festival, which left 10 people dead. The rapper did not face criminal charges in connection with the incident, with Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg saying last year that a grand jury found "no crime did occur" and "no single individual was criminally responsible."
In a statement in 2021, Scott said he was "devastated" by the crowd surge, adding, "My prayers go out to the families and all those impacted by what happened at Astroworld Festival. Houston PD has my total support as they continue to look into the tragic loss of life."
