Lloyd Banks has been arrested on assault and robbery charges after allegedly attacking a promoter following a concert in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, on Friday night (Jan. 8).


The G-Unit member, born Christopher Lloyd, performed at Brantford’s Club N.V. before the altercation occurred. According to MTV News, the rapper and three associates, Nicklas Sloane, Shawn McGee, and Tyrell Cooper, got into an argument with the promoter over payment for his appearance and performance.

The promoter claimed that Banks and the three other men held him in his hotel room against his will before assaulting and robbing him on Saturday morning (Jan. 9). All four individuals were charged with forceful confinement, aggravated assault, and robbery.

Banks and his associates appeared in court via video on Sunday (Jan. 10) and are due back early this week. They currently remain in police custody.

The rumors I've been hearing ARE true. This is a real weak move on Lloyd Banks and his team's part. Is he and his peeps that strapped for cash?? It should never get this far. And I was actually looking forward to hearing his upcoming mix tape and album, set for a second quarter release. Check out a pic of the victim's lacerations below:
