Yung Jeezy Charged In Incident at Atlanta Strip Club
|
Posted By: Jimmy Jones on May 30, 2007 Atlanta - Rapper Young Jeezy and some of his friends were arrested on a disorderly conduct charge following an argument at a suburban Atlanta strip club. DeKalb County police spokesman Michael Payne says the rapper, whose given name is Jay Jenkins, was arrested after the incident at Strokers Club in Clarkston on Thursday at 3 a.m. Payne said off-duty police officers from the nearby community of Pine Lake were handling security at the club, and called for backup from the county police. He said Jenkins and two male friends were booked on disorderly conduct charges at the DeKalb jail and quickly released. He said Jenkins' sister was given a citation for disorderly conduct but was not booked at the jail. Dekalb County authorities could not immediately provide the status of the charges. A spokesman for Young Jeezy's distribution company, Corporate Thugz Entertainment, did not immediately return a call asking for comment. The rapper got his start in Macon and Atlanta. Clarkston is about 10 miles northeast of Atlanta. If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
