Rapper Killer Mike, also known as Michael Render, was handcuffed and taken away during the Grammys after winning three awards, including Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance for “Scientists and Engineers” and Best Rap Album for “Michael.”
The reasons for his detainment at Crypto.com Arena around 4:22 pm PT were unspecified, with a law enforcement official suggesting a possible release later without disclosing charges.
Despite earlier uncertainty, it was later revealed to be related to a misdemeanor and not connected to the arena events, with an official calling it a “big nothing.”
