Young Jeezy was reportedly arrested and charged with false imprisonment, battery, making terroristic threats against his son, according to TMZ.
On Jan. 7, the report surfaced that in September 2012, rapper Young Jeezy (real name Jay Jenkins) was arrested in Atlanta, Georgia after getting into a fight with his son, throwing him into a door and threatening to kill him.
Young Jeezy Arrested
During a fight, Jeezy threw his son, whose name and age has not been yet identified, into a glass shower door in which he hit his head on, according to the documents obtained by TMZ.
The rapper, 36, alllegedly punched his son before dragging him into the bedroom, throwing him on the table and “pummeling” him. The papers also read that Jeezy’s son claims his father choked him and said “I will kill you. I will put a bullet in your head right now. If I could get away with it, I would kill you.”
His son apparently tried escaping but Jeezy’s bodyguard was there and blocked the stair well.
The rapper turned himself in to police on Jan. 3 since there was a grand jury warrent issued. He posted $45,000 bon shortly later.
“We have no doubt this matter will resolve itself appropriately. At this moment, Mr. Jenkins is thankful for the support of his fans and the respect for his family’s privacy,” his lawyer told TMZ.
