A$AP Rocky was arrested Thursday night after fighting with two photographers, TMZ reports.

The A$AP Mob ringleader was engrossed in a verbal dispute in downtown Manhattan as the photographers attempted to snap pictures of the argument. A$AP Rocky and his friend then diverted their attention to the shutterbugs, who ultimately suffered cuts and bruises. One even sought hospital treatment.

New York police took the rapper into custody and is currently charging him with attempted robbery, according to KarenCivil.com — for what though, no one is sure. This isn’t the first time the LiveLoveA$AP MC has gotten into a scuffle. His headlining show at the VICE Kills Texas party at SXSW in March ended in a brawl. Fresh off last weekend’s Pitchfork Music Festival, A$AP Rocky was scheduled to make his television debut tonight on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
