Fans of rapper Sexyy Red want her to consider cleaning up her image now that a viral video purportedly showing her involved in an airport brawl has surfaced online.
According to TMZ, the St. Louis rapper was arrested on June 8 at the Liberty Newark International Airport on charges of disorderly conduct. The outlet has since obtained surveillance footage revealing several people believed to be part of her entourage engaged in a melee with another group near the doors of a jet bridge.
Multiple people are seen pulling at and tumbling over each other as a male flees the fracas. At one point, a woman believed to be the “SkeeYee” rapper in black sweats and a red bonnet grabs a metal stand and appears read to strike someone off camera with it. A man eventually pushes her aside, and she falls to the ground without ever hitting anyone with the object.
Several individuals who were already on the ground continued to tussle as agents moved swiftly to close the doors to the jet bridge. It is unclear what ignited the flared tempers or if those who were charged with assault were connected to the 26-year-old.
At least one victim was treated for minor injuries at an area hospital. Red nor her team has released an official statement regarding the matter.
