Embattled rapper and hip hop musician Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested in New York City Monday night amid a federal investigation into sex trafficking allegations, his lawyer and sources said.
It’s unclear what charges the fallen star is facing, but the New York Times reported that the arrest follows a grand jury indictment.
Combs has also been accused of a long pattern of domestic violence against his former partner, R&B singer Cassie Ventura. She sued him in November and the pair quickly settled. But a distressing video of him assaulting Ventura in a hotel hallway in 2016 recently resurfaced — prompting a new round of backlash.
Combs’ Beverly Hills mansion was also raided by Homeland Security about six months ago. It’s unclear what the agents were looking for during the March raid, but it’s believed to be part of a sex-trafficking investigation.
