RAPPER REMY MA ARRESTED: The charge is attempted murder.
Uh oh, NY rapper Remy Ma looks to be in a heap of trouble. She was arrested Saturday on charges of attempted murder in a shooting in Manhattan, police said.
The rapper, whose real name is Remy Smith, had been sought for questioning in the shooting of a 23-year-old woman early Saturday after a verbal dispute near a bar in the Meatpacking District.
She reported to police Saturday evening and was also arrested on charges of assault and criminal possession of a weapon, police said.
"I ask everyone to keep an open mind," attorney Scott Leemon, the 26-year-old rapper's attorney told the AP. "Things are not always as they seem."
Leemon said an arraignment would be likely be held on Sunday.
According to a police report, a 911 call reporting gunfire led police to a woman with a gunshot wound. Three blocks away, officers discovered a luxury SUV owned by Remy Ma; the vehicle had been involved in a single-car crash and abandoned, police said.
The victim, Makeda Barnes-Joseph, was in stable condition at a hospital. Sasha Tcherekoff, owner of the Pizza Bar, said a review of security videotape taken inside his nightspot showed the rapper and her friends having a good time before they exited.
