UPDATE:
A man has been arrested in the shooting incident between rap trio Migos and Sean Kingston, AP reports.
Mioses Johnson, 28, of West Palm Beach, Florida, was being held at the Clark County jail pending an initial court appearance on charges of felony assault with a weapon and carrying a firearm without a permit, and a misdemeanor count of discharging a gun where persons may be endangered.
Jail records didn’t indicate if Johnson had an attorney. He was initially detained by event security guards, and a .380-caliber handgun was seized from him before his arrest, the police spokesman said.
Cordero identified Johnson as part of a group accompanying Kingston at the venue hosting an expo called Agenda at the same time as the larger MAGIC Las Vegas fashion convention at other event centers around town.
The physical confrontation near an outdoor Sands expo center loading dock followed an argument inside stemming from a previous dispute between the two groups, Cordero said.
ORIGINAL STORY:
Georgia rap group Migos allegedly got into a violent brawl with singer Sean Kingston while attending an event at the Sands Expo and Convention Center in Las Vegas on Tuesday afternoon, according to TMZ.
The fight reportedly ended suddenly when somebody in Kingston’s camp pulled out a gun and fired a single shot, not striking anyone.
At around 4 p.m., the “Bad & Boujee” rappers supposedly slammed Kingston to the ground and began stomping his head, police sources told TMZ. The fight had apparently erupted after an argument about Soulja Boy got heated.
Both parties were long gone by the time police arrived, according to sources.
However, a Las Vegas Police Department rep told the Daily News that the alleged shooter and one other person were arrested after the melee.
Meanwhile, video posted to social media shows Migos members dapping up Kingston moments before the alleged beatdown:
