2 Chainz’s Bodyguard Arrested for Punching a Photographer
A bodyguard for 2 Chainz was arrested on Sunday for punching a freelance photographer in the face, reports Page Six.
The man was trying to take pictures of 2 Chainz as he arrived at 30 Rock for an appearance on Jimmy Fallon— the rapper has been wheelchair bound since breaking his leg and having surgery on it earlier this summer.
The 67 year-old freelancer came up and began shooting and that's when he was allegedly punched in the face by one of 2 Chainz's security team members, 47-year-old Rory Smith. Smith was later arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault for the incident.
However, the show still went on for 2 Chainz, who was interviewed by Fallon and performed a song on the show.
