Originally it was reported that he was taken into custody after running a stop sign and having no license plate. It was also said that the 27-year-old was handcuffed and taken to the police station. But we now know that is false.
Tyga told paparazzi why he was detained and that his Mercedes G Wagon was brand new. He even posted on his personal Instagram photos of him modeling his new whip earlier that day.
